Get ready for a week of fashion in Knoxville. March 3-7, Knoxville Fashion Week (KFW) will feature fashion shows, cocktail parties, and fun to celebrate the growing arts and fashion scene in Knoxville.

Knoxville is becoming more stylish every day with new unique boutiques and designers popping up. Now there is fashion fun for a cause.

Aside from promoting arts and fashion in the community, KFW will also be donating a portion of the proceeds for the Autism Achievement Academy. Since KFW's inception in 2012 a portion of the proceeds has always gone to help children affected with autism. KFW founders, Brent and Jaime Hemsley, are spearheading the building of this non-profit school to help children with autism receive the direct heavy early intervention and education they desperately need to reach their highest potential. KFW allows a large platform to help promote awareness to autism and the needs that go with it.
