'Fake influencer' Suzan Mutesi wears a bizarre preppy outfit at Australian Fashion Week after causing chaos last year by rocking up in a towel
Suzan Mutesi has once again raised eyebrows with her outfit choices at day two of Australian Fashion Week.
Last year the 'fake influencer', 38, made headlines when she arrived at Sydney 's Carriageworks wearing a towel.
And she is back at it again this year, this time stepping out in a bizarre preppy outfit with a black sports coat hanging from her torso with just one sleeve.
The look begins with a black Ralph Lauren polo shirt which The Challenge star tucked into a mini pleated skirt.
She paired it with a set of thigh-high white socks with black bands and shiny, gold-tipped kitten heels.
Suzan then pulled a jacket on over one arm as she carried a faux leather handbag.
She kept her face bare, opting for a no-makeup look.
The actor finished her ensemble with a blonde wig and white cap.
Suzan has fast become a fixture at Carriageworks during AFW every year, making headlines for all the wrong reasons.
Last year, the controversial Sydney influencer stunned when she stepped out wearing only a towel wrapped around her body, and another wrapped around her head.
The look was a direct copy of the Vetements 'towel' outfit worn by singer Doja Cat at the 2024 Met Gala.
Photos showed Suzan, who has been accused of purchasing a bulk of her 1.2million Instagram followers, walking from her parked Mazda while trying to keep her towel from unfurling.
Upon noticing a photographer, Suzan began posing for an impromptu photo shoot in the middle of the gravel car park.
Suzan's grey Mazda is the same car that broke down in front of a crowd at Carriageworks during Australian Fashion Week in 2023.
She was left humiliated and was forced to miss out on a fashion show as she stood by her car waiting for a mechanic to arrive on site and fix her vehicle.
The influencer's presence at Australian Fashion Week has been questioned in recent years by insiders who claim she has previously pretended to attend shows after failing to receive tickets.
'She has been showing up to Carriageworks just to get her photograph taken, without being invited to the fashion shows she claims she's attending,' a source said.
'She only went to a few shows, but for the most part she's just hanging around outside for attention.'

Samantha Armytage commits dangerous act in London as she goes bike riding in the city
Samantha Armytage is currently enjoying a relaxing holiday in London after filming The Golden Bachelor. But the Channel Nine host, 45, committed a dangerous act as she explored the city on Tuesday. Samantha shared a video to Instagram as she rode a bike through a park but she wasn't wearing a helmet. The TV star also revealed how she almost fell off the bike, captioning the post: 'Both hands on the wheel! Nearly fell off.' In the video, Samantha laughed as she turned the camera to reveal her scenic surroundings while on the bike. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The trip comes after Samantha was recently busy filming The Golden Bachelor. Cameras have officially started rolling on the Channel Nine dating show for older, single romantics looking for a second shot at love. Daily Mail Australia exclusively revealed Barry 'Bear' Myrden, a 50-something infrastructure engineer and passionate sailor from Sydney, has been handpicked as the leading man for the upcoming Australian adaptation. In exclusive pictures, Barry was seen filming the show in Sydney in March, and his cast of leading ladies have since been spotted arriving at the Sydney mansion where filming will take place. Barry, a father-of-three and a respected professional in the tech industry, currently works in Data Centre Management for Woolworths Group. With decades of experience in his field, he has held senior roles at major companies like Macquarie Bank and the NSW Port Authority. But while his career has flourished, sources close to Daily Mail Australia revealed his personal journey has been marked by tragedy as Barry is is widowed. 'Bear is always complaining that his boys are saying that he is bringing around the wrong kind of girls that are just too young and hot for him,' one friend revealed. 'We were always saying that he needs to be put on a show like MAFS, so seeing him up for the Bachelor role is no surprise.' Despite his corporate background, Barry is far from your typical office-bound executive. A passionate sailor, he has competed in high-profile races like the Sydney to Hobart. In one photo captured during one of his recent sailing ventures, Barry looked handsome and rugged as he manned a yacht. Unlike The Bachelor and The Bachelorette which feature young men and women, the Golden Bachelor is targeted at a more mature audience eager to watch how those who have already experienced great love and loss are chasing companionship in their next chapter. 'Bear is not your usual reality TV type,' an insider told Daily Mail Australia. 'He's charming, intelligent and has really lived a full life. He's been through love, loss and now he's ready to open his heart again. Women are going to adore him.' Local fans of the The Golden Bachelor have been calling for an Australian version since the US version premiered last year to critical acclaim. Producers are keeping tight-lipped about the contestants vying for Barry's heart, but if the US series is anything to go by the show promises to deliver a mix of heartwarming moments, deep connections and unexpected twists.

Coronation Street star teases new arrival for one family after plea from fans
Coronation Street's Betsy Swain actress Sydney Martin is very aware about fans' hopes for a new addition to the Swain family, and she's completely backing it for the ITV soap If one Coronation Street favourite gets her way, and viewers, there could be a new addition to the ITV soap. One family in particular could be about to get a new arrival, one cast member is hoping, but who could it be? The family in question is the Swains, amid them forming quite the dynamic with Carla Connor and her household. But could the infamous Swain cat, teased by Betsy Swain in a past scene and then called for by viewers, finally make an appearance? Betsy actress Sydney Martin certainly hopes so, telling The Mirror at the British Soap Awards all about it. While she joked about the origins of the potential feline, which may or may not exist, Sydney confessed she would love to see a cat make an appearance. Her co-star Cait Fitton, who plays Betsy's pal Lauren Bolton, agreed and even offered to play cat sitter. Sydney shared: "Where is the cat? I mentioned a cat and I'm feeling now that it may have been a metaphor. I said something like she loves the cat more than me, so where is the Swain cat? "I hope one day it makes an appearance." Cait then backed this saying: "We can get a cat. We can bring it onto set and go there's the cat." In terms of what to call the hypothetical pet, we suggested Bauren - the name Cait and Sydney gave their characters Betsy and Lauren's budding friendship. Rather hilariously, Cait thought we said "Warren" so that could be the winner here. The actress is very keen to help look after the Swain cat though, while she did point out a potential problem. Offering to cat sit for the family, she said: "I'll cat sit unless Frankie is allergic to cats, cos then I can't." As we later spoke with Sydney about the growing family dynamic with Lisa, Betsy, Carla and others, Sydney vowed it would keep "growing". Of course the hypothetical cat was mentioned once more, with her saying: "It's growing... and a cat. I haven't forgotten the cat." Sydney also praised Corrie boss Kate Brooks for developing strong families and friendships, which she said was key to the ITV soap. Speaking of her own onscreen family, she shared: "It's a beautiful dynamic and it works so well." Asked what was ahead for her character, Sydney confessed she doesn't even ask bosses what's on the way. She joked: "We don't ask we just go with the flow, it's like 'what are we doing next week?'." With the crossover with Emmerdale coming up too, Cait reckons Lauren wouldn't fit in in the Dales, but she'd love to see Cain Dingle have it out with David Platt. Cait also revealed that the stuff with Lauren and Betsy almost didn't happen. Corrie boss Kate added it into an episode as a trial run not knowing what to expect, but soon it proved to be a hit and Kate "loved it".

Unbelievable secret behind year's 'most terrifying film' Bring Her Back's vomit-inducing scenes
It's been dubbed 'the most terrifying horror film' of the year. Bring Her Back, from Australian directors Danny and Michael Philippou, follows two siblings who find themselves caught up in an occult ritual by their foster mother. The supernatural chiller rattled moviegovers over the weekend, with many claiming that the film's stomach-churning scenes had left them nauseous. One shocking scene sees troubled Ollie, played by 12-year-old child star Jonah Wren Phillips, being fed a piece of fruit on the end of a large knife by his foster brother Andy. When Andy turns his back, Ollie begins voraciously gnawing on the knife in order to satiate a demonic spirit inside of him. As he chews on the razor-sharp blade, blood begins gushing everywhere and his teeth begin to crack and become dislodged. In another scene, the demon completely takes over Ollie's body and he begins trying to eat everything in sight, including the edge of a wooden table that immediately splinters and starts tearing into the child's face. Explaining the secrets behind both horrific scenes, prosthetic FX designer Larry Van Duynhoven told Variety that they used a set of prosthetic teeth and added some chocolate to the prop table to disguise the taste for Phillips, who plays Ollie. 'He was able to really go to town because we had the dentures that helped protect his teeth and mouth,' Van Duynhoven said. 'The dental technician designed some breakaway teeth in the dentures, so some of those teeth snap off.' Phillips added, 'They said they put chocolate in it a little bit. I didn't taste it because I had blood in my mouth. It was more of a texture because they hollowed it out so it was really crunchy.' Director Danny Philippou told Polygon, 'The entire table was laced with chocolate, so he enjoyed eating it. He was still munching on it between takes.' For the jaw-dropping knife scene, a rubber prop was used whenever Phillips was present, and then a puppet head whenever they needed to use a real blade. Philippou added, 'We had a [prop replacement for Jonah's head], so we could put a real knife in this fake head and rip his lip.' Bring Her Back opened in US theaters over the weekend, pulling in $7 million. Critics have praised the film so far, while viewers have been left sick by some of the violence and realistic practical effects. 'Bring Her Back made me so nauseous, it was so good,' gushed one fan on X, formerly Twitter. 'Bring Her Back WAS SOOOO GOOD I felt sick watching that scene,' added a second, while a third wrote, 'Bring Her Back is sick. Definitely seeing it again.' A fourth wrote, 'If y'all need a movie to watch this week go see Bring Her Back in theaters. My first time ever a movie made me literally set up to vomit. The plot is crazy too.' Bring Her Back is from the directors of Talk To Me, which is currently the highest-grossing horror film in A24 history. According to the filmmakers, the flick is so scary moviegoers passed out during preview screenings. 'We've had three faintings,' Danny admitted during an interview on Australian talk show The Project. Oscar-nominated English actress Sally Hawkins, 48, known for her roles in Paddington, Wonka and Happy-Go-Lucky, stars in Bring Her Back. Hawkins plays grieving mother Laura, who attempts to bring her daughter back from the dead using a paranormal ritual.
