More Than a Fashion Week — A Global Movement

Vie Fashion Week (VFW) is a premier global fashion platform curated to celebrate creativity, culture, and couture on one of the most spectacular runways in Dubai. Established by visionary fashion entrepreneur Mr. Akhil Raveendran & Ms. Aiswarya Prasad,  VFW is now proudly presented under the banner of Vie Fashion Academy since 2025, with Mr. Akhil serving as CEO and Founder and Mr. Dunstan Paul Rozairo as the Chairman.

History

Originally launched through A Square London, the event has since evolved into a dynamic and inclusive platform that brings together renowned international designers, emerging talents, fashion brands, buyers, manufacturers, and industry leaders from around the world. VFW not only showcases stunning creative collections but also fosters meaningful connections, trade opportunities, and brand launches within the global fashion and lifestyle industry.

The Core

VFW is dedicated to empowering new voices in fashion while celebrating the rich diversity of global design. With a premium guest list that includes celebrities, models, pageant winners, business leaders, high-net-worth individuals, and royal family members, Vie Fashion Week continues to set new benchmarks in elegance, innovation, and inclusivity.

At VFW, we believe fashion is for everyone — and we proudly stand against all forms of discrimination.
