Curated by Kate Shaw, Co-ordinator and Educator in the CIT Bachelor of Design (Fashion Design), the exhibition brings together educators, graduates and students from six Australian design schools in a vibrant discussion about the design challenges that will inspire the next generation of Australian fashion designers.

Canberra Institute of Technology

ANU School of Art
Seven innovative emerging designers, graduates from design schools from around the country, have been invited to propose a Fashion System for Tomorrow that inspires new models of practice, informing Australian Fashion that is authentic, sustainable and valued.
A national fashion student design brief: Consider what you wear invites visitors to dress up in the garments and see themselves on the catwalk.
A photographic essay will capture the experience of participants wearing the garments. These images will become an evolving part of the exhibition providing feedback to the designers and expanding the image.
Fashionably Early offers designers a non-commercial space to think. It encourages diverse solutions, experimentation, risk taking and play.
