'Life is a beach" is the theme for this year's annual fashion photography exhibition set to be unveiled at Sydney's MLC shopping centre on March 24.
The showcase includes idyllic images from the shores of Tamarama and California's iconic Venice Beach, as well as a chic Centennial Park picnic and graphic city landscapes of New York and London.
The 25 works - which were shot by Australia's best fashion photographers, including Derek Henderson, Harold David, Georges Antoni and Nick Leary - will line the walls of level 7, the centre's upper fashion level, where Belinda, Gucci, Jimmy Choo and Farage, among others, are to be found.

From Skyscrapers to Seashores - Life is a Beach is at the MLC Centre (Martin Place, corner of King and Castlereagh streets), until April 7.
Limited-edition prints are on sale for $750, with profits benefiting the National Breast Cancer Foundation and the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.
