Founded in 1992, FS began as a small collective of students looking to give back to their community and to highlight the role the next generation has in influencing the Fashion Industry not just tomorrow, but today. We are now one of the largest and most successful student-run fashion shows in the United Kingdom. FS is a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organization, SC050426. Each academic year, we host two events to fundraise for our elected chartable partner: Starfields, a vibrant music festival in September, and the St Andrews Charity Fashion Show (FS) in February. From 2011-2019, we also hosted the Young Designer Award (YDA) program – an annual, nationwide competition for the U.K.’s most promising up-and-coming designers. Starting in 2020 we introduce F4TE (fashion for the earth) Week, a week of virtual events focusing on different topics that pertain to sustainability within the Fashion Industry. The end of the week will see us publish our first online Zine. The F4TE Zine, with sustainable brands to follow next to highlights from the week, is our exemplification of the future of the marketplace and adaptation to the digital and virtual space as technology begins to take on a bigger role in fashion. In 28 years, we have raised over half a million pounds in donations and helped a new generation of talented young designers start their fashion careers.
