NGV brings an A list crowd for the opening of ‘Escher x Nendo’ exhibition, including Melbourne’s International Pop Sensation ‘ Troye Sivan’

The National Gallery of Victoria celebrates this year’s second Black Tie Gala with award winning actress Natalie Portman leading a star studded white carpet guest list.

Natalie dressed in a soft pink  ‘Dior’ couture gown has fallen in love with Australia and particularly Melbourne while enjoying the celebrations of a family wedding and also surprising our own

Melbourne Demons Football Club, at a pre-season training session.

Melbourne’s own international ‘Pop Sensation” Troye Sivan, who’s just returned from a sold out US tour, was excited to be performing and also glad to be home in Melbourne.

Other guests included English model and actress Poppy Delevingne sister of Cara and Chloe Delevingne, who stunned the crowd in a revealing ‘Paolo Sebastian’ couture gown leaving little to the imagination.

Vogue Editor in Chief Edwina Mc Cann, Australian actress/director Rachel Griffiths and NGV’s own National Gallery Director Tony Ellwood, 

enjoyed the evening’s decadent festivities of Escher X Nendo’s largest gallery exhibition to date.
