TRUE SOUTH
TRUE SOUTH is a jewel in the crown of the Pacific Arts Summit! Responding to a glaring gap in the fashion market, TRUE SOUTH showcases a hand-picked selection of local designers who honour and celebrate the plus size, the Amazonian, the big and the tall – the women of Poly-Fabulous proportions!
Where big is the norm and street style is as much influenced by mass media as it is by [multi] cultural identity, South Auckland is the perfect space for a night of fierce fashion to seriously shake-up notions of Nesian body politics!
The TRUE SOUTH designers are:
- Lissy Cole (I Love Lissy)

Interview coming soon! - Tasha Lee
Interview coming soon! - Paula Chan
- Czarina Wilson
Featuring a line-up of big, bold local talent, headliner Otara-based choreographer, Tepaeru-Ariki Lulu French will present her recent work, Pacific Muse, a stirring and beautiful investigation of the Pacific body, stereotypes and the legacy and effects of colonisation.
Also performing are:
- Deelicious Dance Crew
- Ura Tabu Pacific Dance
- Bella Kalolo with special guest Rosita Vai
