BENEE

Sweeping up four awards last night, I like how the singer understands the irreverent dark humour of a designer like Jimmy D in this look from the label.

Viva's dining out editor and host for the night Jesse gets into the spirit in a suit from local maker Manahan Menswear using Ralph Lauren upholstery fabric, and Kanoa wears a sleek black jumpsuit.

TEEKS & HOLLIE SMITH

Another Viva cover star and rising talent Teeks teams a pair of white sneakers with an elegant suit, while Hollie opts for an artfully pleated black dress from another young designer we love, Natasha Ovely from Starving Artist's Fund.
