The avant-garde designer Rocky Gathercole is lending his extraordinaire fashion designing talent to the Miss World Australia New South Wales State Finals with pageant finalists to showcase his brand new collection at The Star Sydney event this weekend.
Sydney will be witnessing yet again a night of glitz and glamour, the theatrical-themed fashion show will be featuring about 40 emerging Australian models as young as four years old.
"Bata pa 'yang mga 'yan kaya na-eexcite pa sila sa nakikita. But eventually 'pag talagang artist na sila, magkakaroon sila ng sarili nilang style. The best advice na maibibigay ko sa kanila, kung 'yun talaga ang gusto nila, they have to work hard for it. Mahalin nila kung ano yung gusto nilang gawin at ibigay nila ang lahat-lahat," says Hollywood designer to the young emerging fashion artists.
(They are still young, so they're still excited on what they see, but eventually when they become artists themselves, they'll have their own style. The best advice I can give them, if that's what they truly want, they have to work hard for it. They should love what they aim to be and they have to give their everything.)
"Just keep on praying and one will harvest the fruits of his labor."
Based in Los Angeles, Rocky Gathercole is a favourite of some of the Hollywood celebrities such as Britney Spears, Paris Hilton, Lady Gaga, Jennifer Lopez, Nicki Minaj, Katy Perry, Taylor Swift as well as Australia’s own Sia.
