Fashion Week is still days away but models have already hit the catwalks. Australian designer Rebecca Vallance presented her Spring/Summer 2013/14 collection at Ananas Bar and Brasserie in the Rocks yesterday. The collection entitled ‘Paris au Printemps’ was inspired by the first blossoms of springtime in Paris. Vallance showcased geometric prints and pops of colour in lime, violet and cherry red as well as signature lambskin leathers in black and blush. Capri pants, sheath dresses, bows and Peter Pan collars were all on trend. Hollywood-based actress Jessica McNamee and model Lara Bingle sat front row, alongside Vogue Australia’s Edwina McCann and Christine Centenera.

But Candice was the total pro and managed to get the shot, just seconds before it started to pour with rain. Here are some behind-the-scenes shots from the day.
