Pip Edwards and Jordan Barrett lead star-studded arrivals at Ksubi after party for Australian Fashion Week after turning away dozens of celebrity invite requests
Pip Edwards and Jordan Barrett led the glamour on Friday night at the exclusive Ksubi Australian Fashion Week after party, held in Sydney 's Rushcutters Bay to celebrate the close of the world famous event. All the stars were decked out in stylish Ksubi streetwear and Edwards, 44, turned heads in a dazzling double denim ensemble that featured a cropped vest and high-waisted jeans dripping in glittering embellishments. The P.E Nation co-founder completed her look with a black belt, matching sparkly heels and her signature tousled locks. Meanwhile, Australian model Jordan Barrett, 28, looked dashing in a monochromatic outfit consisting of a black unbuttoned blazer, crisp white shirt, black trousers and matching dress shoes. His brown hair was elegantly styled as he posed for photos outside the event. Elsewhere, The Block star Elle Ferguson turned heads in a denim button-up jacket teamed with matching mini-shorts that showcased her endlessly long, slender legs. She added a playful touch with stylish heels topped with fluffy blue pom-poms, while her blonde locks were effortlessly styled around her shoulders as she mingled with fellow A-listers. Elle was accompanied by her AFL star fiancé Joel Patfull, 40, who cut a stylish figure in a slick unbuttoned denim jacket paired with matching pants and a black baseball cap. Also spotted at the exclusive bash was publicist and columnist Jana Hocking, who stunned in a sleek black gown paired with matching heels. Her blonde hair was elegantly styled and she looked positively radiant as she rubbed shoulders with Sydney's fashion elite. Vogue Australia Editor-in-Chief Christine Centenera showcased her incredible figure in a chic all-black ensemble, teaming a structured blazer-style top with sleek matching leggings. Her glossy jet-black hair was styled neatly around her shoulders, and she appeared in high spirits as she enjoyed the night's festivities. Following the Vogue Vanguard show, Ksubi hosted the official Australian Fashion Week afterparty in partnership with Vogue Australia and American Express. Special guest DJs Mirasia and Soju Gang performed for a hand-picked crowd of 500 VIP guests. A ticket to the official AFW afterparty was so lucrative that rejection emails were being sent out to several unlucky hopefuls. Many hopeful attendees were met with a blunt RSVP response that read: 'We have been overwhelmed by the response for this event. Due to venue capacity constraints, we regret to inform you that you have been placed on a waitlist. At this time, your RSVP is not confirmed.' Despite the high demand, the night was a dazzling finale to a week of high fashion, street style and red carpet moments that put Sydney front and centre on the global style map.

Australian Fashion Week 2025: Pip Edwards leads near-nude rush with underwear as outerwear trend
Pip Edwards has led the charge at Australian Fashion Week where, in an ironic twist, actual clothing was out of style. 'Inside out, outside in … no rules,' the designer said while posing for photos and flaunting the season's must-have item: underwear. The tracksuit mogul was finally free from the restraints of the Sporty Spice athleisure that had covered her body for so long. Strutting into the runway show for Australian suiting brand Farage, the 45-year-old — who last year stepped down from her namesake sportswear brand P.E. Nation — shrugged off the thick nylon fabrics of yore to reveal … not much. At Fashion Week this year, less is more. What you see is what you get – whether you want to, or not. Exposed underwear – visible briefs, bras and G-bangers under sheer dresses – had slipped off the runways and onto the streets. The emperor has no clothes, and neither do the influencers. While the trend had started to creep in at last year's Fashion Week in Sydney, it seemed even more people were now comfortable with the idea of flashing their jocks. Celebrity stylist Elliot Garnaut said the fad had 'surged dramatically' — led by Miu Miu and followed by Aussie designers like Beare Park and Mariam Seddiq, who incorporated sheer fabrics and lingerie-inspired elements into their collections shown this week. ' … The trend took a bolder turn (this year),' said Garnaut, whose A-list clients include radio host Carrie Bickmore and model Shanina Shaik. 'Think: underwear worn proudly over leggings, or no pants at all — just high-cut briefs and a whole lot of confidence. It's all about personality and styling with intent … because there's a fine line between fashion-forward and looking like you left the house before the dry cleaning was ready!' Internet personality Sopha Dophaa, who has about 1.4 million followers on TikTok, said she was emulating the ultimate fashion icon: 'Captain Underpants.' Her lewk? White briefs pulled over a pair of tights. 'It's weird. It's not a normal thing,' she said. 'I wouldn't do this on a normal day. (The trend) started last year but this year I'm trying to embrace it.' Her friend had worn the exact same pair of jocks and tights earlier in the day. Then Sopha Dophaa (real name Sophia Begg) decided to yank them on. A communal pair of jocks? Don't judge. It's called far-shun. And Sopha Dophaa's not the only person rocking second-hand underwear. 'This bra isn't even mine, it's my daughter's,' image consultant Jenny Austin, 51, said about the exposed $30 Bonds underwear she nicked from her child's bedroom that morning. Content creator Jazzlin Jarrett, 21, said she paid $2000 on fashion resale marketplace Depop for a used briefs-and-bralette combo from luxury designer Miu Miu. 'I think it's pretty affordable compared to brand new,' she said, before admitting she was 'nervous' to leave the house with the lingerie on-show. For content creator Rachel Johnston, 24, wearing her underwear for all to see was about 'breaking down the boundaries and pushing the limits'. She said she regularly wears the look 'pretty much anywhere'. 'I get positive reactions from girls … but it's a different reaction from the guys,' she said. 'It's a little more sexual … But I do it for the girls.' Celebrity stylist Elliot Garnaut, said it's 'crucial to consider your setting' and issued a warning to perhaps avoid experimenting with the style at more demure affairs, like black tie weddings. Cristal Dale, 22, decided underwear simply wasn't revealing enough. She ditched her bra completely and instead decided to wear a belt as a top. 'I just came up with it,' she said. 'I grabbed the belt off the jacket and off I went.' At Carriageworks, the industrial venue where Fashion week is staged, a young man crashed the festival and seemingly mocked proceedings by strutting around in a pair of Budgy Smugglers. One young woman, wearing a lace corset as a top, was not impressed. 'Attention seeker,' she muttered.

Thought better of it? Pip Edwards drops outlandish accessory and changes outfit right before arriving at Australian Fashion Week
Pip Edwards had some difficult decisions to make on Thursday night. With a full week of fashion shows to dress up for, the designer was busy picking her look for day four of Australian Fashion Week. The 45-year-old showed off her very eye-catching boots in an Instagram post before she left for the event - only to switch them out before she arrived. Pip's futuristic footwear was thigh high and featured a load of silver spikes that resembled needles. Her son, Justice, 18, looked on in the post, and seemed a touch unimpressed by his mum's wardrobe choice. Later, stunned in a black mini dress with exaggerated puffed shoulders paired with less eye catching leather boots. Long sleeves with a tattoo style design emerged from the frock, and Pip showed off her trim pins. Pip added statement hoop earrings, as well as a stack of bracelets and rings for accessories. For makeup, she chose a glowing look with a warm toned blush and a soft pink lip stain as well as winged liner, while pulling her hair off her face. At the show, Pip sat in the front row with Justice and her bestie Jackie 'O' Henderson who had her daughter Kitty, 14, in tow. Jackie chose a daring suit dress under which she went braless, showing off lots of bust. The unusual frock had a blazer upper and an asymmetrical element across the skirting. The radio queen added a pair of gold hoop earrings and had on a pair of simple black heels. For makeup she chose a rosy palette with a bold pink lip and lots of eyeliner while wearing her hair down in soft waves. Jackie was accompanied by her teenage daughter was who was chic in a high fashion black gown. Meanwhile, Pip's ex, Ksubi founder Dan Single returned to the spotlight with a bang on Tuesday as he launched his first fashion event since almost dying from a balcony fall in 2017. The designer, 47, 'fell three floors' from his room at Hotel Grand D'Amour in Paris in March 2017, shattering both his legs. But as he makes his comeback to the limelight at Australian Fashion Week, it seems his ex and fellow Ksubi colleague Pip Edwards was missing. Dan staged an art installation at AFW to promote his new book The Diary of a Naughtie Kid at Carriageworks, but Ksubi Creative Director Pip was nowhere in sight. The P.E Nation founder, who shares son Justice, 18, with Dan, was not pictured at the art installation, nor did she make any public comments about Dan's show. The installation took place at Carriageworks at 5pm, but Pip wasn't pictured on location until 6pm when she attended the Beare Park runway. It's unclear if Pip, who split from Dan in 2008, reached out to to her ex to support him privately or just made a low-key appearance at his show. Daily Mail Australia has reached out to Pip for comment. Dan's book, which features photos and ephemera such as love letters, hate mail and newspaper clippings from Dan's reign in the fashion world in the 2000s, is 'a little snapshot in time when it was a magical moment to be alive'. The book is dedicated to his teenage son Justice, who he shares with P.E Nation designer Pip. The installation launching The Diary of a Naughtie Kid, which was attended by several hundred audience members at Carriageworks in Sydney, featured a heavily tattooed woman sitting upon a tin foil wrapped-couch surrounded by images from the tome.

Pip Edwards was sure not to skip one of the biggest events on the Australian Fashion Week calendar. The designer headed to the Ksubi showcase alongside her best mate Jackie 'O' Henderson in Sydney on Thursday. The 45-year-old, who is the Creative Director for the brand run by her ex Dan Single, stunned in a black mini dress with exaggerated puffed shoulders.

Ksubi founder seen in public for first time in years as he launches Fashion Week event after stepping away from the brand and almost dying in balcony fall - but did ex Pip Edwards attend?
Ksubi founder Dan Single returned to the spotlight with a bang on Tuesday as he launched his first fashion event since almost dying from a balcony fall in 2017. The designer, 47, 'fell three floors' from his room at Hotel Grand D'Amour in Paris in March 2017, shattering both his legs. But as he makes his comeback to the limelight at Australian Fashion Week, it seems his ex and fellow Ksubi colleague Pip Edwards was missing. Dan staged an art installation at AFW to promote his new book The Diary of a Naughtie Kid at Carriageworks, but Ksubi Creative Director Pip was nowhere in sight. The P.E Nation founder, 45, who shares son Justice, 18, with Dan, was not pictured at the art installation, nor did she make any public comments about Dan's show. The installation took place at Carriageworks at 5pm, but Pip wasn't pictured on location until 6pm when she attended the Beare Park runway. It's unclear if Pip, who split from Dan in 2008, reached out to to her ex to support him privately or just made a low-key appearance at his show. Daily Mail Australia has reached out to Pip for comment. Dan's book, which features photos and ephemera such as love letters, hate mail and newspaper clippings from Dan's reign in the fashion world in the 2000s, is 'a little snapshot in time when it was a magical moment to be alive'. The book is dedicated to his teenage son Justice, who he shares with P.E Nation designer Pip. The installation launching The Diary of a Naughtie Kid, which was attended by several hundred audience members at Carriageworks in Sydney, featured a heavily tattooed woman sitting upon a tin foil wrapped couch surrounded by images from the tome. Dan, who has rarely discussed his 2017 accident which happened at an upscale Paris hotel, revealed he ' died for ten minutes' after the fall, which left him in a coma. 'It made me stop, slow down and think about what I want in my life,' the designer told Confidential on Wednesday. 'I had a chance to start fresh and I have used that second chance to be of service and help to inspire.' Dan fell 35 metres from the fourth-storey balcony of Hotel Grand D'Amour in Paris in March 2017. The accident saw him plunge several storeys, shattering his legs and leaving him in a coma for eight days. The Daily Telegraph first reported Dan's fall, with a source telling the publication at the time: 'His legs are a complete mess; he won't be walking for a very long time. 'He is not in a good way. It's expected both he and Bambi will have to stay over there for quite a while because he's not able to fly.' The following month, Dan created a Go Fund Me page, writing he's 'been given a second lease at life'. 'It all sounds awful but the guy writing this mail has been given a second lease at life and is SO grateful, inspired and excited to be back soon,' he wrote on the page. 'I am also lucky to have my family here by [my] side, wife, mother, brother and at least a visitor a day.' Dan said at the time he was hoping to raise $250,000 to help pay for his recovery and any associated costs. 'Help fund the hospital bill, rehab bill, early flights home, being unable to make bread and work over the next [few] months and all the incidentals the family is covering at the moment,' Dan added. The entrepreneur also clarified the media reports were correct, and he shattered 'every bone from my feet to my hips and pelvis'. 'I fell three floors (35 metres) out of my hotel room in Paris, did a summersault and landed on my feet which saved my spine and my brain (a miracle says the doctor, one in 100 million chance).' Dan added about his recovery: 'I have been in a coma for two weeks, had eight operations and am covered in pins and bolts in my bones. 'I cannot use my legs for another month or two so will be in a rehab centre in Paris recovering.' Dan was labelled 'pathetic' for asking the public to raise the $250,000 to help cover his medical bills. An anonymous donor said: 'How come you can fund partying, drinking and overseas trips but not your own recovery?' 'I'll give you $5 with the sole intent of telling you what an idiot everyone thinks you are.' Dan later removed the crowdfunding campaign after it was met with an avalanche of abuse with the former BRW Young Rich-lister labelled 'disgusting' by commenters. He announced his his split with then-wife Bambi Northwood-Blyth in March 2018, exactly twelve months after his Paris balcony fall. Bambi tied the knot with Dan in Byron Bay in January 2014, with Bambi becoming a step-mother to Dan's son Justice, 10, at the age of 22.
