Some influencers were also kitted and dressed in the new Me & B collection with  Trenton footwear to complete their oh-so stylish looks.

Kelly & Betina were very excited to share with everyone what they have been working with. Kelly says “It honestly feels so surreal that this event was such a huge success! The whole team has been working so hard to ensure that the event runs smoothly while still continuing with our usual production process. We’re so incredibly proud of everyone involved and so happy to showcase our garments on the runway and show everyone what we’ve been working on. We’re obviously also feeling a bit emotional, this has been such a dream of ours for as long as we can remember so to be at the point where this is a reality is just unreal!”
