BYRON SCHOOL OF FASHION
About us
​The Byron School of Fashion provides comprehensive and practical fashion education centred on sustainability and local production. Our programs guide students through every step of developing their own fashion concepts and product portfolios while teaching eco-conscious practices and supporting sustainable enterprises.
What makes us uniquely Byron is our blend of sustainability, creativity and community values. By bridging the gap between traditional fashion training and sustainable innovation, we empower students to rethink and regenerate the industry.
Born during the 2020 lock down, a time when the world at large was reassessing priorities, Byron School of Fashion inspires creativity for a better world.
We are here to applaud all the designers and makers who are part of a sustainable and ethical fashion industry. Whether it be on a small or large scale, these contributions are all valued and all needed. BS.F will have a positive impact in fashion by starting with the right education that is innovative, ethical and sustainable.
