AN IMPORTANT UPDATE ON STRENGTH IN STYLE

After careful thought, the team has agreed that we won’t be running a full Strength in Style show this year.

Instead, we’re taking what we’re calling a fallow year — a deliberate pause from the main event in 2026 so that we can return in 2027 stronger, better resourced and even more impactful.

This isn’t about stepping away from Strength in Style — it’s about protecting what makes it special.

Over the past 3 years, SIS has grown far beyond what we first imagined. With that growth comes greater complexity and responsibility. Rather than rushing forward without the right structures, funding and capacity in place, we feel it’s important to take time now to build a more sustainable foundation for the future.

What will still be happening over the next 18 months:

• We’ll keep Strength in Style alive through a small number of curated, lower-key events and gatherings. Watch this space as more information regarding these will be coming out soon!

• We’ll continue sharing stories, inspiration, and updates across our social media channels.

• We’ll be working behind the scenes to secure sponsorship and strengthen partnerships.

• We’ll be designing a clear structure that supports everyone involved — from models and creatives to volunteers and presenters.

All of this is focused on one goal: returning in 2027 with an event that feels joyful, properly supported and worthy of the incredible community around it.

Thank you — truly — for everything you have already given to Strength in Style. Your energy, openness, creativity and generosity are what make this more than just a fashion show. We hope you’ll stay connected with us over the coming months, and we very much look forward to creating the next chapter together.

With love

The Strength in Style Fashion Show Team
