The Singer Fashion Academy hosted En Vogue 2026, a runway presentation celebrating creativity, craftsmanship, and culture while spotlighting the next generation of Sri Lankan fashion designers. Held for the second time, the event reaffirmed the Academy’s role as a leading institution for fashion education and talent development in Sri Lanka.

Designed as a professional runway experience, En Vogue 2026 provided Diploma and Advanced Diploma in Fashion Design students with a platform to present their work in a real-world fashion show setting. The event bridged education and industry while highlighting strong individual design identities.

Mahesh Wijewardene, Group Managing Director of Singer Sri Lanka, said, “En Vogue 2026 demonstrates our continued investment in skills development and the preservation of Sri Lanka’s design heritage, while reinforcing the Academy’s role in developing future-ready professionals for the fashion ecosystem.”

The show featured collections by 34 Diploma students across nine themed segments, while seven Advanced Diploma students presented individual collections—marking the Academy’s first-ever solo runway presentations. In addition, sarees and Kandyan sarees designed by 20 students from Singer Fashion Academies across the island were also showcased.

Adding to its visual distinction, En Vogue 2026 featured a mirror-effect runway, creating an immersive experience that set it apart from its previous edition. The show paid tribute to traditional forms while reinterpreting them through contemporary design sensibilities, celebrating both creativity and Sri Lanka’s fashion heritage.

Terrence Martyn, General Manager – Apparel Solutions and Fashion Academy, said, “En Vogue 2026 reflects our commitment to nurturing well-rounded fashion professionals. By giving students a professional platform to showcase their creativity and technical skills, we are preparing them to confidently step into the industry while staying rooted in Sri Lanka’s cultural heritage.”
