Graduate Fashion Week is returning and it's the largest showcase of BA fashion in the world, with over 60+ of the most influential and inspiring UK & international universities and colleges on show.
The annual event, held here every June features 22 catwalk shows and exhibition stands, alongside a packed schedule of live talks and workshops from leading names in the fashion and retail industry. It represents the future of creative design talent and showcases the work of thousands of the very best graduates. A fantastic opportunity to see the freshest talent in fashion illustration, photography, design and communications.
Graduate Fashion Week bridges the gap between graduation and employment and is responsible for launching the careers of some of the most successful designers of our time including Christopher Bailey MBE, who was the winner of the first ever Graduate Fashion Week Gold Award, Stella McCartney, long time member of the Truman community Giles Deacon, Matthew Williamson and Julien Macdonald.
This year GFW has 28 prestigious awards to be presented to talented graduates including two new awards of The Hilary Alexander Trailblazer Award, the Vivienne Westwood Sustainable and Ethical Award (more below!) and The Clarks Footwear Award. This year's edition is certainly one to watch.
