Home and Away star Isabel Lucas shows off slim figure in ethereal frock as she returns to spotlight at Australian Fashion Week following Covid vaccine drama
The former Home and Away star, 40, showed off her slim figure as she attended the Aje show at Pier Pavilion in Barangaroo.
Isabel had heads turning in the flowy frock which danced in the wind as she walked past attendees of the much-anticipated runway show.
The leggy model had her trim pins on full display in the brown-hued mini dress, and accessorised with a pair of knee high boots aka the AFW uniform of 2025.
She gleamed as she wore her long golden locks across her shoulders and down her back, securing her hair out of her face with two hair clips to show off her natural, bronzed makeup look.
The Aussie star took a moment to pose with fellow model Jessica Gomes, who opted for a casual fit with light-wash jeans and a leather shirt which she tucked into her pants.

On Tuesday, Isabel showed her face for the first time at Australian Fashion Week after a COVID-19 scandal saw her go MIA.
The Aussie actress and model, who made headlines a few years ago when she refused to get the Covid-19 vaccine, had all eyes on her as she dazzled in a slinky, silky dress in a bright green hue.
The midi-length dress boasted a modest neckline while accentuating the model's slender physique.
She paired the brightly-coloured frock with a pair of knee-high black boots and a black $15,600 Chanel handbag.
In 2023 Isabel discussed her decision to skip the jab, admitting she knew it was 'highly likely I won't work for years if I share this'.
Speaking to Stellar magazine, the star said that she had 'several' vaccines when she was growing up, but chose not to get vaccinated against Covid.
'For me, I appreciate, what might be right for you may not be right for me, but it's not right that either of us are being stripped of the freedom to choose,' she explained.
'Our relationship with our body is very personal and it's deeply complex and so are our choices, and we're claiming to engage in conversations about inclusion and diversity – you know, gender, religion, sexuality, race – without allowing our beliefs or observations to be acknowledged,' she continued.

'The diversity of choice is yet to be included, in my experience.'
In November 2021, Isabel said that she was 'pro-choice' when it came to the Covid vaccine.
She later clarified her remarks on Instagram, saying she has 'concerns around "mandatory" vaccination, not vaccination itself'.

Tammy Hembrow and Bailey Smith seen on second date as the AFL star flies to the Gold Coast AGAIN to see the fitness influencer
Tammy Hembrow and Bailey Smith can't seem to get enough of each other, as the pair were spotted enjoying their second date at a beach on Friday. The AFL star, 24, who first jetted up to the Gold Coast to see Tammy, 31, last weekend, made the trip again to take her on a romantic stroll to Nobby's Beach. Influencer Updates AU shared footage of the pair on Instagram on Saturday, as the footy player appeared to have his arm wrapped around Tammy's hips. The clip showed Tammy and Bailey cuddled up as they walked down the street after getting a coffee together and soaking up some sun in the sand. 'Spotted at Nobby's Beach GC yesterday!' the caption read. 'They pulled up together in her car, got coffee and went for a walk then drove off with him driving her car!' Tammy posted to her Instagram Stories just a few hours later, wearing the same grey tank top and denim shorts she wore on her date, and shared a photo of the beach. Likewise, Bailey was spotted in Melbourne just shortly before he flew up to QLD, wearing the same black tracksuit he donned for their outing. It was likely a brief visit as Bailey would have flown back to Melbourne soon after their rendezvous to prepare for the Cats' bout against the Swans in Sydney on Sunday. Their second catch-up came on the same day news broke about a community coach being sacked after he made a vile comment about Tammy dating Bailey. Harvey Brunswick Leschenault Football Club formally sacked League coach John Baggetta on Friday after he posted a shocking slur about the online star to Facebook. John called the fitness influencer a 'c** bucket'. Days earlier, Daily Mail exclusively revealed Bailey and Tammy were seen together on a date on the Gold Coast, kissing and sharing lunch at a waterfront restaurant. The outing fuelled speculation about a new romance, coming only two months after Tammy's split from her ex-husband Matt Zukowski. Later, she appeared on social media wearing what seemed to be Bailey's jacket. Bailey has declined to clarify the relationship. Photographers and reporters attended Geelong training this week, where Bailey was the centre of attention, but the Cats star only responded with a tirade of expletives. Their alleged union on the Gold Coast sparked enormous chatter on social media platforms, including plenty of horrendous comments directed at Tammy. One of the worst of those slurs was posted in the comments section of a news article by John. 'He's just trying to keep his relevance,' John posted about Bailey. 'And she is just a c** bucket,' he then posted about Tammy. His comment sparked a barrage of calls for him to be sacked, with the Harvey Brunswick Leschenault Football Club officially wielding the axe on Friday. 'The board of the Harvey Brunswick Leschenault Football Club wish to inform all players, members, officials and supporters that John Baggetta has been terminated as League coach,' the statement read. 'Regarding the social media post made by John, we do not condone those comments, and they do not reflect the values or standards of the Harvey Brunswick Leschenault Football Club at any level.

Brazen thieves target footy legend's luxury car in broad daylight - leaving his young family 'rattled'
Footy legend Trent Cotchin and his family remain in disbelief after they were victims of a daylight robbery. The triple-premiership captain with Richmond and Brownlow Medallist had numerous items stolen from his Mercedes outside his Moonee Ponds home, in Melbourne's north-west, on Thursday. His wife Brooke later posted security footage of a car pulling up in front of their house around 6pm. A hooded thief can be seen hovering over Cotchin's car - which was unlocked - before opening the door and helping himself to a wallet, including an Amex card. Cotchin has confirmed multiple transactions were made on the card before it was locked. Victoria Police were then spotted at Cotchin's house on Friday morning taking statements. Footy legend Trent Cotchin and his family remain in disbelief after they were victims of a daylight robbery this week in suburban Melbourne The triple-premiership captain with Richmond and Brownlow Medallist had numerous items stolen from his luxury Mercedes (pictured) outside his Moonee Ponds home on Thursday Cotchin's wife Brooke told Instagram followers her family were left 'rattled' by the incident The footy star's wife posted on Instagram anything 'half valuable' in the vehicle was taken, but Cotchin's mouthwash, toothbrush and toothpaste were left behind. She added her family were left 'rattled' by the incident. Cotchin retired at the end of 2023 following a brilliant career with the Tigers, which included flags in 2017, 2019 and 2020. He captained the team to all three premierships, and also snared three best and fairest gongs at Punt Road during his storied 306-game career. Away from footy, Cotchin was recently mortified when he appeared on Channel Seven's Dancing With The Stars. While he impressed when performing a Cha Cha with Jess Raffa, the decorated midfielder was left with a questionable red lipstick mark on his crotch. It was all good natured, with Cotchin admitting it was 'extremely awkward' before playfully asking host Sonia Kruger to 'move on' when questioned about the stain. Dancing With The Stars fans previously noted Cotchin had been a little hesitant to dance with Raffa during early days of the show. Many felt the footy star didn't feel comfortable dancing with another woman who was not his wife and childhood sweetheart, Brooke.

Tristan Rogers, who played super spy Robert Scorpio on 'General Hospital,' has died at 79
Tristan Rogers, who played legacy character Robert Scorpio on ABC 's 'General Hospital,' died Friday, less than one month after he made a special appearance on the soap opera. He was 79. 'The entire 'General Hospital' family is heartbroken to hear of Tristan Rogers' passing,' said Frank Valentini, the show's executive producer, in a statement. 'Tristan has captivated our fans for 45 years and Port Charles will not be the same without him (or Robert Scorpio).' Born in Melbourne, Australia, Rogers' first foray into performing was in his early twenties and playing drums in a rock band with a group of friends. They weren't successful so Rogers turned to commercial work and modeling to earn some money. When the band dissolved, Rogers decided to give acting a try. After various roles in Australia, he also worked as a DJ and eventually moved to Los Angeles to try to break into Hollywood. He said casting directors were initially turned off by his accent but he eventually landed a two-day role on 'General Hospital' in 1980. 'I had no idea at the point how big the show was,' Rogers told fellow 'General Hospital' actor Maurice Benard on the YouTube show, 'State of Mind with Maurice Benard' in 2022. 'I had no name. I was brought in expressly to beat up the hero, Luke, (played by Anthony Geary), and then disappear,' Rogers said. His first day was half-over when then-executive producer Gloria Monty asked if he would like to stay on. They had no character written for him so for three weeks Monty asked him to just appear in scenes 'looking furtive, looking suspicious' until they came up with a storyline. It was decided he would play a spy known as 'CK8' and eventually he was given the name Robert Scorpio. The character would remain a fixture in Port Charles for the rest of Rogers' life, even when he wasn't a current cast member. Scorpio's on again/off again romance with Emma Samms' character, Holly Sutton, remained a favorite among fans. Scorpio also had a romance, and many storylines with another spy, Anna Devane, played by Finola Hughes. Scorpio and Devane shared a daughter, Robin, played by Kimberly McCullough. Samms returned to the show for a stint last fall where it was revealed that Scorpio was the father of her adult daughter, Sasha Gilmore (played by Sofia Mattson.) Rogers and Samms left the show together in November 2024 in scenes taped with a nod to 'Casablanca.' He returned to the show in July for one episode when Sasha arrived to his home in France with her new baby. It was then revealed that Rogers had lung cancer Rogers' other acting credits include 'The Bold and the Beautiful,' 'The Young & the Restless' and 'Studio City,' which won him outstanding supporting actor in a digital drama series at the Daytime Emmy Awards. He is survived by his wife, Teresa Parkerson, and a daughter and a son.
