#OWwomen Melissa Leong

by Once Was
Do you follow us on our social media? If so, you would have seen over the last few month’s the numerous posts of one of our #OWwomen that has single handedly transformed Australia’s food industry with her amazing way with words.
 
Melissa Leong is a freelance food & travel writer, food media consultant, radio broadcaster, television presenter, MC and cookbook editor. And as of 2020, she became the first female host and judge of Channel 10’s MasterChef Australia. We personally think she was also the best dressed throughout both series!
 
Her relatability, empathic nature & maximalist/minimalist style are a few of the things about her that captivated us. “Melissa has the rare combination of being able to carry off aspirational style while still being relatable to a wide demographic,” said our designer and director Belinda Glynn in a recent interview for www.news.com.au.
 
We appreciate all of Melissa’s support & love for our brand. Not only is she brilliant and inspiring, she has graced our televisions bursting with colour, style and compassion.
 
We would also like to thank 10Styling, OneTwo Agency & Melissa’s stylist Charmaine De Pasquale for all their support! OW x
