About

Fashion isn’t just about style or the latest trend for us, it’s about vision, leadership, and the ability to turn ideas into impact. At the University of Winchester, we are not simply educating students; we are preparing them to lead. Winchester Fashion Week is more than an event, it’s a proving ground, where our students step out of the classroom and into the industry, refining their instincts, sharpening their skills, and making their mark.

Marina Brkljac, Programme Leader and Lecturer, Fashion Business and Marketing, University of Winchester said:

“Our collaboration with Winchester BID is a testament to the power of partnership. Here, students don’t just observe, they create, produce, and execute. They learn what it takes to bring a concept to life, to navigate the business of fashion with confidence, and to deliver experiences that matter. This is where the next generation of fashion leaders takes shape.”

Sarah Davis, Winchester BID Manager said:

Winchester BID is excited to be working with the University of Winchester once again to deliver Winchester Fashion Week. With a spotlight on sustainability and business engagement, this event gives us the opportunity to showcase not just the work of the students as they prepare for the world of work, but also how city centre businesses are adapting to the challenges posed by the need for sustainable clothing. We look forward to seeing what both parties deliver.
