WHEN Miranda Kerr smiled at us we went to Rio. Melbourne's A-list were dazzled by a blaze of colours from the moment international model Miranda Kerr stepped onto the David Jones catwalk for their Brazilian-themed summer show last night.
Front-row guests included DJ's brand ambassador Megan Gale, fashion designers Alannah Hill and Collette Dinnigan, Chief Commissioner Christine Nixon and businessman Ron Walker.
Melbourne Town Hall was transformed into a South American summer, with bold decorations setting off the flamboyant prints and bright threads on the catwalk.
Kerr, in her Melbourne runaway debut, headed 44 models parading more than 180 outfits by Australian designers such as Akira, Morrissey, Alex Perry, Ginger&Smart, Trelise Cooper, sass&bide, Alice McCall, Alannah Hill, Thurley, Anna Thomas, Arthur Galan, Collette Dinnigan, Easton Pearson and Fleur Wood.
With her trademark wink, Kerr showed why she will no doubt mean big business for the David Jones.
The New York-based model kicked off the show in a pink and red Jets bikini.
She went on to light up the room in a Trelise Cooper mini-dress in a kaleidoscope of colours.
She closed the show by calling Dinnigan onto the runway as she paraded her final outfit – a Dinnigan champagne beaded dress.
