The festival follows a strategic rebranding of the former Melbourne Fashion Festival to reach audiences beyond metropolitan areas and highlights Shepparton's role as a growing cultural destination. The program is a collaborative effort supported by the Victorian Government and the Greater Shepparton City Council.

The series features a curated selection of over 20 events, including creative workshops, film screenings, and live demonstrations. Many activities are designed to be accessible, with numerous sessions offered for free or at a low cost. Key highlights include appearances by celebrated designers such as Akira Isogawa and a collaboration with the Shepparton Art Museum, which integrates fashion with artists from the 2026 Archibald Prize exhibition. This initiative seeks to provide a major platform for local makers while stimulating the regional visitor economy.
