THESE are the faces of Australian fashion — sixteen designers, editors, photographers, make-up artists and models whose creative flair and experience are putting our industry on the map.

And there’s no Devil Wears Prada bitchiness behind the smiles, according to one of them, Camilla Freeman-Topper.

Ms Freeman-Topper, who posed with Marc Freeman, her design partner at their label Camilla and Marc, said: "Because it's a small industry we are all tight and a lot of people in the portrait are close friends.”
