About AFSU
Our History
Since our establishment in 2019, AFSU (Australian Fashion Start Up) has been dedicated to sharing knowledge of the fashion industry in the form of education to students from all over the country. We started running small group in person workshops and have grown to now offer a range of goods and services. We are focused on remaining true to our core belief of providing high quality fashion education to everyday people.
Our Community
We are not just an educational platform to teach you skills, we are a community too. The fashion industry is a tight knit community and we encourage others to join through networking events, by sharing award opportunities, industry events, employment opportunities, connections and current trends to keep you in the know.
