CHRIS KONTOS

AFW ICONS 2024 Chris Kontos 2

Magnetic, original and the true definition of ‘life of the party’, we couldn’t do it without Chris Kontos.

Leading the creative vision for ADL Fashion Week, the TAFE SA alum has an impressive career spanning design, PR, marketing and business strategy. He’s a fierce advocate for homegrown talent, elevating the presences of local powerhouses including Acler and Bird In Hand, as well as global brands like Vera Wang.



Three things you might not know

  • He loves McDonalds...
  • But hates cut pickles in burgers!
  • Chris wanted to either work in fashion or become a detective (and still might)!
