"Indonesia Beautiful" is the first fashion show held in Australia featuring Indonesian and Australian designers.
The event is expected to be a repetition of the success of the first event, which was held in 2016.
According to the Consul General, the fashion show is part of the efforts to strengthen economic cooperation in creative and fashion industries between Indonesia and Australia.
The Consul General underlined that the continuous joint efforts, both through short courses and events such as the Indonesia Beautiful and other promotional programs, will contribute to the improvement of cooperation between the two countries.
In addition, these activities will result in economic benefits not only to the fashion industry in Australia and Indonesia but also for the people of the two countries, Yayan remarked.
During the last two years, the bilateral cooperation between Indonesia and Australia has been increasing and strengthening, among others, which is indicated by programs and events on fashion that continue to be conducted by either of the two countries.
The Consulate General in Sydney recently held a Muslim women fashion show called Hijab Sydney Spark that featured the works of Indonesian designers, which were brought by some of the Australian models.
