MELBOURNE CAMPUS OPENING!
WORDS BY THE NFC TEAM
National Fashion College Launches New Melbourne Campus – A New Era for Fashion Education!
National Fashion College is thrilled to announce the grand opening of its brand-new Melbourne campus, located in the heart of Abbotsford, the epicentre of Melbourne’s dynamic fashion and beauty community. Surrounded by the head offices of some of the city's most influential fashion brands, our Melbourne campus is set to be a game-changer. Bigger and bolder than our Sydney campus, this new space offers a creative environment designed to inspire the next generation of fashion industry leaders.
The Melbourne campus features two exciting new additions: a dedicated styling closet - a treasure trove of the latest fashion pieces, perfect for bringing student creativity to life - and two cutting-edge podcasting studios, giving students the chance to share their insights, ideas, and industry knowledge with the world.
To kick off this exciting new chapter, we’re starting with a bang! In February, our enrolled students will enjoy an exclusive Orientation Experience at a private LUX Cinema, where they’ll indulge in all the treats while watching a special screening of The September Issue. This iconic documentary takes us behind the scenes of VOGUE’s most famous issue, following the legendary editor-in-chief Anna Wintour. It’s the perfect way to inspire and energise our students as they embark on their fashion journey with us.
Our Melbourne students will be immersed in real-world industry experiences right from the start. In their first term, they’ll meet renowned industry figures including the Creative Team behind Maticevski, the Costume Designer from the popular TV show Neighbours, Celebrity Stylist Elliot Garnaut, the Head of Marketing at Bonds, and the Founder & Director of TWOFOLD Media, the agency behind major red carpet events like the ARIA’s and Logie’s. These connections will help shape their careers and give them invaluable insights into the fast-paced world of fashion.
But that’s not all - our students will be front and centre at Melbourne Fashion Festival in February and March, getting hands-on experience dressing models, working backstage, and networking with industry legends. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to gain exposure to the highest levels of fashion production and design.
And we’re just getting started! Applications will soon open for our prestigious global programs, giving students the chance to attend New York and London Fashion Week later this year. This is a chance to take their passion for fashion to the global stage, connecting with some of the biggest names in the industry.
2025 is shaping up to be our biggest year yet, and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome our new students to the National Fashion College family. The future of fashion education in Melbourne has arrived - and it’s brighter than ever. We can’t wait to see you there!
