38th IAF World Fashion Convention- 2023 

About the Fair

22nd Oct, 2023 to 25th Oct, 2023 at Philadelphia, US, United States Of America Every year, the IAF organizes a convention for its members, relations and all other interested parties called the World Fashion Convention. This year, in 2023, the 38th IAF World Fashion Convention will take place from October 22 till October 25 in Philadelphia, USA. It will be organised with IAF-member Spesa. The Conventions have the dual function of informing and inspiring delegates and of providing a meeting platform for industry leaders from all continents. To perform these functions our Conventions, although travelling the globe, adhere to a fixed format: The Conventions cater to industry leaders and therefore cover a broad spectre of strategic issues, ranging across the supply chain, from raw materials to retail and from sourcing and supply chain management to retail and branding. The Conventions travel the globe in cycles of at least three different continents in a row. Traditionally, IAF Conventions are more than just a conference. Excellent social activities provide good opportunities for networking within the global apparel industry network. The IAF Golf Tournament, a welcome reception, a gala dinner and a retail tour are all fixed parts of the program. The experience can be extended with an extra study and leisure tour to further enhance international networking.
