Egypt Fashion Week 2026: Cairo Brings Fashion, Craft and Global Perspectives Together

Cairo is preparing to welcome the third edition of Egypt Fashion Week, taking place from 12–14 November 2026, with a programme that aims to connect Egyptian creativity with the wider international fashion industry.

Organised by the Egyptian Fashion & Design Council (EFDC), this year’s edition will bring together more than 50 Egyptian designers, alongside international participants from India, China, Russia, Türkiye and Jordan. The event is also partnering with the BRICS Women’s Business Alliance Egypt Chapter, welcoming an international delegation of nearly 40 representatives from Brazil, China, India, Russia and South Africa.

India takes centre stage as the guest country of honour, with the opening evening, India Fashion Night, celebrating the connections between Egyptian and Indian fashion, textiles and craftsmanship.

The main programme will unfold at Cairo’s Museum of Agriculture in Dokki on 13 and 14 November, featuring runway presentations, exhibitions, workshops and industry discussions. Beyond the collections, this edition introduces initiatives such as the Next Gen Designer Hub, the Egyptian Beauty Hub and Investor Pitch Sessions, creating additional opportunities for emerging designers and fashion entrepreneurs.

More than a showcase of seasonal collections, Egypt Fashion Week 2026 reflects a broader ambition: to strengthen the international visibility of Egyptian design, encourage cross-cultural creative exchange and establish stronger connections between local talent and global markets. As fashion increasingly looks beyond its traditional centres of influence, Cairo offers another perspective on the evolving geography of the industry.
