The story

Seychelles Fashion Week in Victoria

Seychelles Fashion Week is an annual two-day runway event held at the Eden Bleu Hotel on Eden Island, Mahe, now in its eighth edition as of November 2025. It brings international designers to showcase alongside Seychellois talent, partnering with the Seychelles Institute of Art and Design so students can meet visiting designers face to face.

Fashion design is a relatively young formal discipline in Seychelles, taught systematically only since the establishment of the Seychelles Institute of Art and Design, which trains the country's designers, textile artists and craftspeople.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

For an archipelago of roughly 100,000 people, Seychelles Fashion Week punches well above its size by drawing designers from outside the Indian Ocean region entirely: its 2025 edition featured Russian designer Nina Dushko of the luxury brand Vestiaire presenting a thirteen-look capsule collection, alongside Chinese fashion designers who visited the Seychelles Institute of Art and Design for a dedicated presentation to students and staff

02

The mystery stays covered

That educational tie-in distinguishes SFWK from a purely commercial showcase: rather than treating the visiting designers as guests who fly in and out for the runway alone, organisers build teaching moments into the schedule, giving Seychellois design students direct exposure to international couture craftsmanship they would otherwise only see online
