We celebrate the culmination of dedication and creativity at the CIFWK Gala, where our Free Your Mind Program takes centre stage. Design students and guests showcase unique outfits amidst live painting and local musical talent. Join sponsors, influencers, models, international designers, celebrities, and the press for a night of glamour, speciality cocktails, and floating appetizers immersed in the vibrant spirit of Cayman creativity.

The Gala also features the CIFWK Trailblazer Awards, honouring individuals for their inspiring contributions to our community through creative excellence and meaningful endeavours. The CIFWK Trailblazer Awards was established to honour those who have inspired the community through their creative abilities, strive for excellence, and give back to the community meaningfully. The main aim of the CIFWK Trailblazers Awards is to recognize individuals who contribute their skills and talents to a specific category in our community and publicly show appreciation for their contribution to our society.

In 2024, we proudly host the inaugural graduation ceremony of the Creative Fashion School.

The air will be filled with excitement and pride as we witness the emergence of a new wave of talent, ready to make their mark on the fashion landscape. It’s not just a graduation; it’s the dawn of countless creative futures, promising innovation and style in the ever-evolving realm of fashion.
