Global Junior Fashion Week 2025: International-caliber junior fashion event

Global Junior Fashion Week (GJFW), formerly known as Vietnam International Junior Fashion Week, was established in 2018 with the mission of connecting young talents, designers, and brands from over 50 countries. The event is organized by Voyage Group in collaboration with the Hanoi Museum, the Vietnam Martyr Families Support Association, and 5G Multimedia, under the patronage of the Office of International Cooperation Department (Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism), the Vietnam Record Association, and reputable international organizations such as CICON, MARVELS, FCA, and Korea CEO Summit. With strong global connections and professional organization, GJFW 2025 is expected to be one of the most influential children's fashion events in the world

 

Taking place on June 28–29, 2025, at the Hanoi Museum, GJFW 2025 will gather hundreds of talented child models, renowned designers, along with 999 Global Ambassadors, 500 Global Student Model Ambassadors, and 50 international experts in the Senior Advisory Council. With the theme "The Celestial Symphony", the event not only celebrates fashion but also conveys a message of harmony between nature and sustainable living. In addition to fashion shows, GJFW will offer a series of traditional cultural experiences such as making to he figurines, Dong Ho folk paintings, and conical hat painting, allowing children to explore the essence of Vietnamese culture in an international setting. Notably, GJFW will also launch the Global Junior Supermodel 2025 competition to discover and recognize outstanding young modeling talents from around the world.
