With new criteria, Fashion Week 2025 will spotlight only the best in Australian design, focusing on quality over quantity and setting a new standard for excellence. 

Each designer seeking to show will be requested to provide detailed information about their brand and business activity for review by the Selection Committee. All applications will be reviewed by the Selection Committee in line with a rigorous assessment framework. In 2025, decisions made by the Selection Committee are final; an appeal process will be introduced in subsequent years.

Applications were open from 5pm Wednesday 15th January 2025 to Friday 31st January 2025.

Applications have now closed. Designers will be notified of the outcome shortly.
