Fashion Week Columbus(FWC) is the flagship program of the Columbus Fashion Council (CFC), which is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to providing scholarships to fashion design students and a platform to showcase local and emerging fashion designers.
CFC has a broadened vision to help develop Central Ohio's fashion industry and community by providing industry news & resources and by cultivating relationships between fashion professionals, students, emerging artists, community leaders, organizations, and national and international markets. Through strategic partnerships and developed programs, the Columbus Fashion Council also raises awareness of our fashion community while helping to develop local fashion designers to help reach their fullest potential.
Founded in 2010, Fashion Week Columbus has evolved into more than just a fashion event. It's the largest platform of its kind in Ohio, which brings together small businesses from the Central Ohio fashion community (designers, models, make-up artists, hair professionals, photographers, etc...) to launch and promote their brands to regional and national audiences from the FWC runways.
The Columbus Fashion Council is thrilled to announce FWCurve, a groundbreaking event dedicated to celebrating Plus Fashion and the Plus Size Community during Fashion Week Columbus. This vibrant event, set to take place on October 18th at Urban Art Space, aims to shine a spotlight on the incredible contributions of the Plus Size Community to fashion and inclusivity.
Columbus, Ohio, recognized as the third-largest fashion city in the United States, is ready to make a bold statement this year. FWCurve will showcase the beauty, diversity, and strength of Plus Fashion, underscoring its vital role in creating a truly inclusive fashion week. We invite you to join us in this celebration, support our mission, and help elevate the presence of the Plus Size Community in the fashion world. Together, we can make FWCurve an unforgettable event that highlights the importance of inclusivity and empowerment in fashion.
