The Arab Fashion Council (AFC) is the world's largest not-for-profit organization dedicated to establishing a comprehensive fashion system, the Pipeline, that unifies the 22 Arab countries under a single umbrella. With a vision to foster a creative economy based on knowledge and production, the AFC leverages the industry's collective expertise, experience, and resources. Founded in 2015, the AFC serves as the authoritative representative of the fashion industry across the Arab nations.

Supported by industry patrons and commercial sponsors, we lead the industry through creative influence and strategic initiatives, ensuring the Arab fashion industry's prominent position in the global fashion economy. Our strategic pillars revolve around an economy centered on creative knowledge, reputation, education, sustainability, and fashion for humanity. With a focus on establishing a cohesive fashion system and promoting cultural diversity, the AFC has redefined the luxury market with the concept of Ready-Couture, which commands over 70% of the luxury market share.

Additionally, the AFC founded Dubai Fashion Week as the official platform representing Arab countries, offering Arab brands a unique opportunity to showcase their creative work globally
