The organisers of the Pacific Fusion Fashion Show (PFFS) are hopeful they’ll be able to come up with a new date for their event despite having to postpone it again.

The fashion extravaganza was set down for February 26 but the recent traffic light settings change under the Covid-19 management plan forced them to postpone, yet again.

Show founder and facilitator Nora Swann took to social media for the announcement.

“Due to the recent government announcement moving the country to the red traffic light to manage the new Omicron variant outbreak, the Pacific Fusion Fashion Show that was scheduled for Sat 26th February has been postponed.

“We will be working on a new date for rescheduling as soon as we can and will keep you informed once we can confirm it.

“This ever-changing Covid environment does make event planning challenging but we are determined to go ahead with Pacific Fusion Show 2022 as soon as it is safe to do so.

“Thank you for the support you have shown PFFS to date, we remain grateful for your support and can’t wait to have our community come together again to celebrate our Pacific fashion community.”

Like many events over the past two years, the PFFS has been a victim of the Covid-19 pandemic. The February show was originally slated for December last year and in 2020, the event had to be ‘digital only’ and streamed live from the Capital. Launched in 2016, PFFS had become an annual fixture on the events calendar showcasing ‘Pasifika style and grace’ while paving the way for new, dynamic, and ‘culturally infused homegrown designer brands.’

Those who pre-booked tickets for the February event, will be able to update to the later date when confirmed. An option is available for any ticket holders who wish to get a refund instead should contact the PFFS team on [email protected].
