A fashion show promoting Christchurch as the "high-visibility capital of the world" has had a high-profile visitor.
Yesterday, Prime Minister John Key viewed an art show at the Christchurch Polytechnic Institute of Technology's Madras St campus.
A high-vis bikini, bow-tie, wedding dress and wedding cake were showcased in the Reworking the High-vis Vest display.
Key was given a grey, yellow and orange tie by the polytechnic's School of Art and Design, which he put on as the students applauded.
The design students, who were celebrating their city-based campus reopening this week, created the display at the suggestion of course leader Henry Sunderland.
Sunderland said he thought Christchurch was now the high-vis capital of the world after the February earthquake.
Key said he was thrilled to see the students back on the campus.
"It is a milestone.
"The city is starting to recover from the earthquake and young people add vibrancy, enthusiasm and energy to the city," he said.
Thank you my dear, keep an eye out for the rest of it :)
