Caroline Zilinsky on Painting the Zimmermann sisters
Join artist Caroline Zilinsky for a talk on her experience of painting the Zimmermann sisters for the Archibald. Sisters Nicky and Simone Zimmermann debuted their label at the first Australian Fashion Week in 1996 and have since gone on to show in Paris Fashion week and have their brand valued at $1.5 billion to $1.75 billion becoming icons of Australian fashion. Learn about Caroline's experience of approaching them for the portrait, visiting them in their Sydney studio, deciding what they should wear and what it was like to sketch and ultimately paint the Australian's most famous fashion sisters.
