The Forging Fashion Connections team created two iterations of the Hopevale collection, with each featured at two world stage events. In April the first iteration combined pieces from the 2017 collection with new garments and accessories for the 2018 Commonwealth Games fashion performance Intertwined curated by Grace Lillian Lee. In July the collection will be showcased at the 2018 Cairns Indigenous Art Fair fashion performance Bulmba-barra – When bare feet touch the earth.
