Festival start: 18 September 2026
Festival end: 20 September 2026
The Fashion Minute Film Festival is a bold new celebration of where style meets storytelling. In its inaugural year, the festival shines a spotlight on the dynamic intersection of fashion and film—showcasing everything from one-minute movies and music videos to compelling shorts, documentaries, and full-length features.
This one-of-a-kind festival champions innovation in visual storytelling, offering designers a cinematic canvas to express their vision, and inviting filmmakers, musicians, and artists to explore the narrative power of fashion. With three days of events at the BVLGARI CINEMA, London: the festival brings together a global creative community to celebrate the art of style through film.
Our mission is to unite two of culture’s most expressive forces—fashion and film—into a single, boundary-breaking platform where creativity thrives, artistry commands attention, and every vision is not just seen, but profoundly felt.
The Fashion Minute Film Festival honors bold visionaries, stylish storytelling, and genre-pushing creativity at the intersection of fashion and film. As an inaugural celebration, we are proud to present a range of awards that spotlight both cinematic excellence and sartorial innovation.
The Fashion Minute Film Festival (FMFF) celebrates the creative collision of fashion, film, music, beauty, lifestyle, and digital culture. We spotlight bold voices using moving images to express identity, artistry, and style—from one-minute films to full-length features.
The Fashion Minute Film Festival brings together a global creative community to showcase visionary storytelling through the lens of fashion.
