BALTIMORE - Marylandian -- The Fashion Umbrella Foundation is thrilled to announce the return of Baltimore Fashion Week to the War Memorial Building, its original home, for the 18th annual production season, scheduled for August 11 - 16, 2025. This iconic event, which has established itself as a pillar in the creative landscape of Baltimore, returns to Memorial Hall to offer a grander, more immersive experience, fostering a sense of community, creativity, and impactful connections.

As a pivotal fundraising initiative for the Fashion Umbrella Foundation, Baltimore Fashion Week directly supports the organization's workforce development program, which is dedicated to preparing individuals for careers in the fashion and arts industries. By returning to the War Memorial Building, Baltimore Fashion Week not only reclaims its roots but also expands its platform to enhance this essential program. The spacious and historic Memorial Hall will allow for larger audiences, a dedicated press area to support the event's growing media interest, and space for post-show networking opportunities—a valuable resource for all attendees, from creatives to industry professionals.
