LCI Melbourne Students Selected for Melbourne Fashion Week 2025 | Fashion

Eight of our Fashion & Costume Design students will showcase their collections on the Student Collections Runway at Younghusband on Friday 24 October, while two students will exhibit their work in capsules at Emporium Melbourne throughout M/FW.

LCI Melbourne’s Head of Fashion, Darran Arabin-Gander, said it was “an extraordinary achievement for our students and a powerful validation of their originality, skill, and vision. This opportunity allows them to stand shoulder to shoulder with some of Australia’s most exciting emerging designers. We are immensely proud of how they’ve represented LCI Melbourne's commitment to creativity, innovation, and excellence.”

Campus Director Adriano Di Prato added, “This moment signals a cultural shift for LCI Melbourne. From never being invited, to four students selected last year, and now eight, it’s a remarkable leap that reflects the impact of our ‘Different by Design’ philosophy. Melbourne Fashion Week gives our students a platform to be seen, to be heard, and to shape the future of fashion in a city that thrives on creative expression.”
