The model will take centre stage on Friday night at the Oscar de la Renta show at Carriageworks, and will also attend the brand’s after party.

The Oscar de la Renta show is one of the most highly anticipated of the week, with a number of international fashion VIPs delaying flights so they can attend.

Although Oscar de la Renta himself sadly passed away last year, his stepdaughter, Eliza Bolen will be on hand to represent the brand.
