The first official Dubai Fashion Week (DFW), founded by Dubai Design District (d3) and the Arab Fashion Council (AFC), is set to make its debut, kicking off this week in d3 as well as in other exciting new venues and locations across Dubai.

The official Dubai Fashion Week, which launched at an intimate event last month attended by dignitaries, government officials and fashion and culture media, becomes the region’s definitive fashion fixture. With this first edition it will see new spaces and locations used for catwalk shows as well as city-wide engagements comprising worldwide brands and homegrown regional talents, fortifying Dubai’s presence as a global fashion hub and international reference for the entire industry.

Dubai Fashion Week evolves from the successful legacy of Arab Fashion Week. Running from Friday, March 10 to Wednesday, March 15, 2023, the new official fashion event is set to draw international collaborators, design-makers, and visitors, with an extensive gathering of media and buyers arriving in Dubai
