Leather leader crowned
A large crowd donned their finest leather gear to attend the Melbourne Leather Pride Gala in Victoria last Friday night. The gala, one of the premier events of the Melbourne Leather Pride Festival, brings together leather lovers from around Australia and New Zealand. With such a strong field of entrants, competition was tough, but the Victorian entrant Josh Burrows (Mr Sircuit Leather) did his home crowd proud by taking out the title of Mr Leather Australia and New Zealand. Sydney entrant Anthony Lowe (right) was the second runner-up.
