Global Runway.

 
 

Scaling the Power of Fashion for positive impact.


 

A catalyst for
positive change.

Global Runway’s mission is to show fashion as a force for good. Global Runway is not just about fashion; it is a celebration of the human spirit and the power of art to transcend boundaries and bring people together.

Incepted in 2011 in New York City during the 66th Session of the United Nations’ General Assembly, Globally Runway has been creating a world where fashion is a universal language that unites us all, bringing together a high-profile audience of First Ladies, Royals, diplomats, celebrities, industry leaders, influencers, top designers, media, art directors, curators, producers, retailers, technology and environmental experts, and fashion enthusiasts from nations across the globe.

In a world that is often divided by politics, religion, and culture, fashion can transcend these boundaries and connect us on a deeper level. Global Runway’s intention is to unite cultures and people around the world, challenging us to see fashion as a force for unity and understanding, rather than division and exclusion.

Global Runway champions cultural diversity, promotes the exchange of ideas, and fosters collaboration to reform practices essential to create social impact, leading the fashion industry into a sustainable future. Global Runway aims to shed a light on the transformative power of fashion, and how it can bring positive change around the globe.

The runway that will
change the world.

Global Runway’s fashion show is the first to showcase more than 100 fashion designers from different nations to exchange storytelling and heritage. Our vision is to be the first—and largest—fashion runway that tours the world, featuring sustainable pieces from over 100 designers from all over the globe, supported by unique extended experiences, to highlight the transformative power of fashion.

The Global Runway Tour will premiere at the prestigious United Nations Headquarters in NYC during the 4th quarter of 2026 as a symbolism of tolerance and reconciliation. Following this unprecedented premiere, the show and exhibition will tour selected regions, taking the world by storm with its unique blend of global fashion and art through an extraordinary display of creativity and style like never before.

All designs featured at Global Runway’s fashion show aim to be displayed as part of the Metropolitan Museum’s Costume Institute’s permanent collection.
