Graduate Fashion Week 2024
We are delighted to have returned to the Truman Brewery in Brick Lane, London, last June for GFW24, an event that epitomises the vibrant essence of fashion creativity and innovation. With a jam-packed schedule featuring captivating catwalk shows, engaging GFW Live! Talks, and diverse exhibitions, this year's gathering was truly unmissable.
Our annual GFW serves as a vital platform for new graduates from universities around the globe, offering them essential visibility that sparks conversations and fosters connections with potential recruiters, buyers, stylists, and media representatives.
It was a privilege to showcase the extraordinary talent of the Class of 2024, with students excelling across 26 distinct specialisms, each bringing their unique perspectives and ideas to the forefront of the fashion industry.
This dynamic event not only celebrates emerging designers but also sets the stage for a thriving future in fashion, where fresh talent can shine in a supportive and inspiring environment.
