Young Australian Designers Market
Young locals make and/or source the components of your potential future outfits.
Overview
Joining the mish-mash of psychedelic vintage and art books that is Surry Hills on the first Saturday of the month, and the furniture and jewellery delights of Rozelle, and the deeply incredible things you can buy to eat at the Orange Grove Markets — smart money plays Sonoma, fruit and veg bargains and the green olives stuffed with almonds — and the sporadic record fair that happens near the Broadway shops, new(ish) kid on the market roster is the Young Australian Designers Market, a second and third Saturdays of the month affair at Paddington Town Hall. More markets! Yes!
This one's 'thing' is fairly evident from its name: it is a market, at which young Australians sell things that they've designed; things that you can wear, or at least carry. It's a fashion and accessories for boys and girls kind of a deal, predominantly new stuff but with some curated vintage and a growing focus on things for those even younger than these young designers, so you can distract yourself by looking at teeny-tiny baby clothes and wonder exactly where the ethical line lies in dressing a child, because you probably shouldn't put them in costumes all the time, right, but, on the other hand, babies in costumes!
Anyhow, it is official that I know about fashion because the shirt that I am wearing right now used to belong to a friend of mine who used to be a model and now hangs out in New York doing art and being amazing, so I bring to be bear upon this topic of a fashion market my weighty fashion opinion that you have a good chance of getting fashionable fashion bargains at this particular fashion market.
