Kids in Fashion at the Melbourne Fringe Festival

Fashion challenges who we are and who we want to be. Our clothes are generally designed and made by couturiers, ateliers or factories – but the scissors are being handed over to a very different set of designers: kids.

Using the intellect, creativity and ingenuity of children’s imaginations, Kids in Fashion sees children become fashion designers, turning their ideas into reality to explore fashions of the future.

Designed by kids and rendered by local makers, you’re invited to witness the launch of these signature pieces as they sashay and shantay down the runway. Kids in Fashion is a celebratory and empowering live artwork meets social intervention where artistic empowerment is in the hands of young people, helping them realise their own vision for the future of fashion.
