Passport 2 Fashion is on a mission to use fashion as the catalyst for increasing self-confidence and belonging for everyone. Because fashion is not about size, ethnicity, gender, or orientation. It’s about self expression and feeling amazing as you authentically express yourself through your style as you go about your day to day life. Our show celebrates diversity and creates an inclusive space where everyone feels seen, valued and empowered.

So much more than a stunning showcase of styles, Passport 2 Fashion is a beautiful rebellion against what has been considered "fashionable" for decades!

Join the revolution and enter the future of fashion through this artistic extravaganza!
