text: Adding a gritty edge to Tuesday at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Australia, Phoenix Keating, Alice McCall, Zhivago and Khim Hangall embraced a raw, punk style on the catwalk. Punk fashion took to the runway at Sydney's Carriageworks, with stocking caps, fishnets, tattoos and leather harnesses reigning the catwalk. Khim Hang, 22, displayed a bold collection with brooding models donning stocking caps and attire that could be likened to that of war soldiers. Scroll down for video .

The collection, which adopted its own  punk-look, showed a strong oriental influence - an obvious nod to his cultural background (his parents are originally from Cambodia). The line featured oriental influenced prints, rigid soldier tailoring as seen in the kimono jackets, waist ties, loose pants and eyebrow raising stocking shoes and caps that could overall look be described as a modern fusion of war soldier meets lay monk. This year also marks a record for Hang who has been said to be the youngest designer to show at MBFWA. Green with envy: Metallic shades of olive green and emerald dominated on the Zhivago runway .

In a striking contrast to Hang's conservative punk adoption, dark eyes, wet hair a sexy  attitude ruled at Phoenix Keating runway. Prom night: Model wears Barbie pink prom inspired dress at Alice McCall but loses a sleeve along the way . Sydney-based designer, Phoenix Keating, who has previously wowed the likes of Lady Gaga, brought a dark, glam punk showcase with fish netted models taking to the runway with bronzed skin, smoky eyes and wet look hair. The collection  featured black satin and emerald crepe fabrics amongst the fishnet overlays and captured the on-trend netting style seen in sport luxe looks, but adding a sophisticated, edge to the smouldering models.

Oversized office attire: Models wore lose black and white pants and men style shirts in the Khim Hang show . The Alice McCall show also grabbed the audience's attention in a clearly visual punk representation, with colourful, tattoos displayed across the back of a catwalk model. The model wore a open backed top, which clearly highlighted the punk-rock tattoos, a obvious statement rebelling against the fashion norm, in what follows throughout the gritty collection. Contrasting the tattoo laden model, another model mimics a prom Barbie, with innocent blonde locks and a satin pink frock, but is fast made punk with smoky eyes reminiscent of the heroine chic look.

The model  is also seen to lose one of her sleeves mid-catwalk in what's not is a mistake or a obvious tribute to her late night, rolled-out-of a-gutter chic look. The last triumphant punk  look came from Western Australian design duo Zhivago. Zhivago's Lara Kovacevich and Lydia Tsvetnenko swapped rag-doll, wet look hair for bold, black, cut-throat bob-cut wigs, in what can be described as a killer geisha models. All that glitters: Models wear  gold asymmetrical dress (left) and contrasting muted grey (right) at Toni Maticevski . White out: It was all about crisp, textured whites at the Haryono Setiadi show . Wearing leather harnessed stiletto heels, striking black wigs, high-cut asymmetrical dresses and arm cuffs the collection was a strong edition to the modern punk look on display.
