Fashion Forward Dubai (FFWD), the region’s progressive fashion platform, endorsed by Dubai Design and Fashion Council (DDFC) and with Dubai Design District (d3) as Strategic Partner, will return for its tenth season from October 26th – 28th. With its signature move to the heart of the fashion industry in the region, the Design Quarter (DQ) at d3, FFWD is set to present a new format which combines fashion, retail and entertainment on a larger scale than previous seasons. The ambitious approach demonstrates FFWD’s rapid evolution as the single most relevant representation of regional design talent.

So, what’s new for FFWD’s milestone 10th season? Most obviously, the event is relocating to a grander stage at the Design Quarter which has become the central component in the development of d3 and is already home to over 6000 professionals, 400 luxury, design and fashion businesses. The Design Quarter will transform into a celebration of creativity with FFWD’s stamp of what, and who, is making waves in the region.  

Standout runway shows and presentations from seasoned designers and new names making their FFWD debut will remain the focal point of the season, with collections showcased to an audience of international and regional buyers, media and industry insiders. Guests can expect to see the region’s best ready-to-wear and couture collections with highlight brand collaborations and stunning productions.

FFWD’s popular d3 fashion talks also headline the event with speakers sharing thoughts, opinions and inside knowledge. Additionally, social events and after parties dotted around d3’s lounges and restaurants will provide the perfect opportunity to wind down in between the three-day schedule.
