ECO FASHION WEEK AUSTRALIA 2024
In November 2024, International and Australian Sustainable designers showcased their creations, pushing the boundaries of sustainable fashion with innovative materials and powerful storytelling. There were 5 Runway shows, cloth swaps, seminars, classes, repair cafes and pop-up fashion stalls as part of the Eco Fashion Week.
EFWA (Eco Fashion Week Australia) is an artist run initiative and founded by Perth/WA based Visual artist Zuhal Kuvan-Mills. In a world where fashion excess and hyper consumption dominate the scene, Eco Fashion Week Australia (EFWA) launched in 2017 and quickly became the largest eco fashion week in the world in terms of length, number of eco designers and events which were powered by local community and volunteers.
EFWA offered traditional runway shows in two Australian states, Western Australia and Queensland to support and provide a platform for established, emerging and student eco fashion designers. EFWA hosted seminars in major Australian universities in partnership with several conservation organizations, international and national industry experts specialized in sustainability with the aim of educating the public about the importance of sustainability and slow fashion.
