Karen Webster has been a mighty force as the longest serving member of the L’Oréal Melbourne Fashion Festival, having been a Board Director from its very inception and a much-loved Festival Director for the past five years. She herself describes the vast networks of staff and supporters as her “Festival Family” and this family gathered together last night to thank her for her dedication and passion in these, her last days as Festival Director.
Guests gathered at the stunning MiFA Gallery on Collins Street and enjoyed fantastic company, canapés and champagne in celebration of all that Karen has brought to the Festival and the relationships she has nurtured to achieve so much over the years.

I almost want to go back to RMIT just to be in her presence! What a brilliant and inspirational woman you are Karen. Her successor has some mighty big (& stylish) shoes to fill.
