The British Bangladesh Fashion Council (BBFC) is a not for personal profit social enterprise which aims to promote and support people pursue a career in the fashion industry.
BBFC delivers training, work experience, mentoring, networking and a range of other developmental programmes and events related to the fashion industry.
Our annual flagship event, Bangladesh Fashion Week London showcases to the watching world the creative talent of designers with a Bangladeshi heritage.
The key objectives of BBFC are to:
* Support existing and aspiring designers and others within the sector through training and other development programmes
* Promote employment opportunities in fashion & design
* Promote entrepreneurship to British Bangladeshi designers & associated professionals
* Build a bridge between the Ready Made Garment (RMG) sector, the RMG purchasers and fashion designers here in the UK & Bangladesh, to create employment opportunities for local people.
* Promote Bangladeshi fashion, designers & its fashion industry to the UK
* Promote British fashion designers in Bangladesh to enhance trading links.
Although our key focus and target is the British Bangladeshi community as we seek to address the inequality and the lack of British Bangladeshis in the mainstream fashion industry, our doors are open to all sections of the community.
