Australian Fashion Week is an annual fashion industry event, or fashion week, showcasing the latest seasonal collections from Australian designers.

Fashion weeks take place all around the world and often have a big influence on the trends that follow throughout the year. Australia's fashion week is not only limited to fashion trends. Hair and make up trends are also a big part of the event and designers often take the opportunity to make big statements through their designs.
