Home and Away star Isabel Lucas makes a rare appearance at Australian Fashion Week after shunning spotlight following Covid vaccine drama - as she leads the glamorous arrivals
Isabel Lucas has shown her face at Australian Fashion Week after a COVID-19 scandal saw her go MIA.
The former Home and Away star, 40, who made headlines a few years ago when she refused to get the Covid-19 vaccine, had all eyes on her as she dazzled in a slinky, silky dress in a bright green hue.
The midi-length dress boasted a modest neckline while accentuating the model's slender physique.
She paired the brightly-coloured frock with a pair of knee-high black boots and a black $15,600 Chanel handbag.
Isabel wore her long golden locks across her shoulders and down her back, securing her hair out of her face with two hair clips to show off her natural, bronzy makeup look.
In 2023 Isabel discussed her decision to skip the jab, admitting she knew it was 'highly likely I won’t work for years if I share this'.

Speaking to Stellar magazine, the star said that she had 'several' vaccines when she was growing up, but chose not to get vaccinated against Covid.
'For me, I appreciate, what might be right for you may not be right for me, but it’s not right that either of us are being stripped of the freedom to choose,' she explained.
'Our relationship with our body is very personal and it’s deeply complex and so are our choices, and we’re claiming to engage in conversations about inclusion and diversity – you know, gender, religion, sexuality, race – without allowing our beliefs or observations to be acknowledged,' she continued.
'The diversity of choice is yet to be included, in my experience.'
In November 2021, Isabel said that she was 'pro-choice' when it came to the Covid vaccine.
She later clarified her remarks on Instagram, saying she has 'concerns around "mandatory" vaccination, not vaccination itself'.
At the time, the star joined hundreds of people at a rally to protest Australia's Covid-19 vaccine mandates at the New South Wales-Queensland border.
Also in attendance at day two of Australian Fashion Week was Montana Cox, who went topless for the much-anticipated event. ..

Australian Fashion Week officially kicked off in Sydney on Monday, and the runway is already buzzing with drama, daring silhouettes, and that signature flair only Aussie designers can deliver.
Held from 12-16 May and presented by Shark Beauty, the annual fashion event is more than just a pretty catwalk - it's a week-long celebration of creativity, culture, and the next big things in fashion.
With cult names like Aje, Carla Zampatti, Romance Was Born, and Iordanes Spyridon Gogos gracing the calendar, alongside buzzy new names like BOTEH and Buluuy Mirrii, the event blends heritage and innovation - old guard meets next-gen.
