"I want to bridge the two to create a powerful, innovative convergence." With that, the Atlanta International Fashion Week welcomes international designers and models from various worldwide destinations such as Africa, Argentina, Brazil, Puerto Rico, the United Kingdom and the Virgin Islands.

Some of the elaborate shows will also include Kouture Kids, Urbanstyle Fashion Affair, Exotica, Fantasy Island, Curvy Couture, PRIVE Fashion Affair and Men of Style in order to cater to the style in everyone.
