A restaurant turned runway.
Introducing INTERWOVEN, created exclusively for Melbourne Fashion Week.
On Thursday October 22nd, Pastuso will be transformed into a living gallery and runway, with fashion unfolding throughout the restaurant as you dine.
Enjoy a refreshing 1800 Tequila cocktail on arrival and a specially curated multi-course menu while discovering an exciting mix of Melbourne’s emerging creative talent. Designer Tara Whalley brings her distinctive approach to the runway, alongside streetwear label and social enterprise HoMie. Remuse, led by designer Tamara Leacock, joins forces with Rack It Club for a new and exclusive fashion collaboration.
The details continue with jewellery from Juliana Mariele, Koraluna and Melko, adding another layer of texture and personality. Across the space, artists NATSUI and Ulises Resendiz bring their work into the experience, blurring the lines between fashion, art and the restaurant itself.
Forget the traditional runway. At INTERWOVEN, fashion moves through the restaurant as models, art, food and live music bring the space to life. Eche Gordon provides the soundtrack, with plenty more creative surprises still to be revealed.
INTERWOVEN is an immersive night of creativity, collaboration and discovery, bringing together different creative disciplines and weaving them into one totally unique dining experience. Tickets are very limited, don't miss out. Book now with the link in our bio.

Make lunch hour count.
Two courses for $49, weekdays from 12pm to 4pm.
Choose from Sher Wagyu rump, pasture-fed lamb rump cap or grilled rainbow trout, all served with salsa verde.
Keep it quick at the bar, or settle into a long lunch with a few Pisco sours.
Good food, good w**e, and a very good reason to take your time.

Focus when it matters, have a laugh when it doesn’t. The Pastuso kitchen is the home of both.

Charcoal-grilled rump cap, finished over open flame for that unmistakable smoky char and deep, savoury flavour. Served with bright salsa verde for a fresh, herbaceous contrast, with a subtle nod to the bold, fire-driven flavours of Peru.
