Yesterday we were inspired by the next generation of designers at The Innovators show by Fashion Design Studio (FDS) at TAFE NSW. As the Australian clothing industry embraces a circular approach to design, their graduates are stepping forward with collections that reflect these values.

The Innovators by Seamless supporter, Fashion Design Studio (FDS) at TAFE NSW is nurturing the next generation of designers who are not only creatively fearless but deeply committed to building a more sustainable and ethical clothing industry in Australia. As the Australian clothing industry embraces a circular approach to design, their graduates are stepping forward with collections that reflect these values.

This year's event in Sydney built on past successes and launched The Next Garde, an incubator designed to propel The Innovators into the global fashion arena by delivering tailored mentoring from industry collaborators in financial management, media training, local manufacturing, ecommerce and entrepreneurial skills.

Our congratulations to the FDS team on an incredible show and to the designers who presented, Eidan Ceilidh, Emily Misaki Hon, Daisy-Rose Cooper and Shiva Yousefpour.
