I want to bridge the two to create a powerful, innovative convergence.” With that, the Atlanta International Fashion Week will welcome international designers and models from various countries such as London, Africa, Argentina, Brazil, Korea, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.
Atlanta International Fashion Week will offer innovative and informative workshops and fashion based curricula within Pretty Academy School of Fashion. Classes will be instructed by industry experts and AIFW Fashion Council such as and many more.
