Future Fashion is back for 2026, see the upcoming program here.
Now in its 30th year, Future Fashion has established a reputation for showcasing the exciting next generation of design talent emerging from fashion and textile courses at some of Australia’s leading institutions.
This year’s exhibition features outfits from the final year ranges of graduates from four Sydney-based institutions, illustrating their diverse design signatures and technical skills.
To celebrate 30 years of Future Fashion, the exhibition includes outfits drawn from the Powerhouse collection featuring work from Australian alumni who have gone on to have outstanding careers in the industry including Akira Isogawa, Anna Plunkett and Luke Sales from Romance Was Born, Claire Tregoning from P.E. Nation, Dion Lee, Lyna Ty from Song for the Mute and Toni Maticevski.
On July 13, the museum will be open after hours for Powerhouse Late: Future Fashion. There will be talks with the four graduates, panels exploring sustainability and technology in evolution of fashion, techno life drawing, paper design and eco dying workshops. The event is free as part of Powerhouse Late and registrations are recommended.
