Global Fashioning Assembly

Welcome to the Global Fashioning Assembly (GFA), a coalitional gathering beyond institutional, disciplinary and geographical boundaries that aims to decentralise knowledge creation and sharing regarding fashion—through conversation, through the relational, the communal and the coalitional and through a radical act of listening across race, gender, age, epistemologies and genealogies. 

Initiated in 2021 as a biennial, the GFA is a global live streamed event that is passed on from one coalition to the next, with a multi-stakeholder programme combining online and offline formats. The programme is created collectively by different individuals, collectives and communities around the globe. Each aspect of the GFA is self-represented, activated and governed, whereby local stakeholders, communities and audiences are equally engaged and connected across diverse locations.
