The 2025 Xiamen International Fashion Week is taking place at cultural and tourism landmarks including Zhongshan Road and Gulangyu Island from Oct 16 to 19.
Under the theme "unfolding naturally", this year's event will focus on the realms of "sportswear fashion" and "new fashion consumption", featuring three curated sections and 14 activities. It aims to create a fashion week that is visually appealing, interactive, shoppable, and highly connective, driving the deep integration of culture, tourism, and commerce.

A diverse lineup of domestic and international brands will debut their latest collections, highlighting the vibrant energy of the modern fashion industry.
The fashion week will also debut the new city IP "How How Festival" on Zhongshan Road. The event will bring together over a hundred brands, integrating diverse formats such as art exhibition, living market, live performances, and hands-on workshops.
