The Fashion and Design Education

FJFW is proud of its role in the development of Fashion and Design education in Fiji. We have a major focus on Fashion education due to the lack of a central Design facility in Fiji. Therefore we invited Fashion educators from the UK, Australia and New Zealand who attend to run a series of Fashion and Design workshops. We have also sent Fijian Designers to attend short courses in Australia.
