From what I can see in street style photos,

some are posed and some are action shots of people just walking by.

Timing is crucial!

But considering it will be FW, I think people will be used to photographers everywhere, and I think they will oblige to a photo op of their outfit. I suggest also bringing a pad and pen to write down what they are wearing if you plan on documenting it.

Have fun!

I ask because Australian Fashion Week is coming up in a month and this year, I want to take myself and my camera down there and see what happens (Preferably without offending anyone! )!

Hi there, I run a street style blog so am happy to give you some advice on this - to be honest, you have raised a really interesting point in your post - to ask, or not to ask.
I don't really see a problem with not asking permission if you are snapping away at a fashion event - after all, everyone going there knows it is highly likely to be heavily documented anyway, so snap away, as they are kind-of expecting to be snapped when they are there.
And if you want to get a great picture of an individual look, you will end up asking them anyway - you can't beat a good pose!

I always send the people I snap a copy of all the pictures for their own use. You won't offend anyone as long as you smile! Oh and good luck and enjoy the day!

I know for sure, if someone's under 18, you legally cannot take a photo of them and post it on the internet/in a book/whatever without their parent's written consent.
I think, also, if you did take a photo of someone without their written consent (whatever age they are) and they saw it, and didn't like it, they could sue you. Not likely but it could happen. Even with verbal consent, it can still happen as you can't prove anything.
At least this is what I've come across, I don't do street photography but I've done photography for Lottery funded projects and they issue guidelines on what photos you can publish.
