The Arts of Fashion Foundation is a 501(c) (3), public, non-profit organization, based in San Francisco, California. Established in 2001,[1] the focus of the foundation is supporting creativity and design in fashion and the arts linked to it.[2] Among their projects are the International Arts of Fashion Competition, The MasterClass Series, the CarteBlanche and Debut Series (and the latter's spinoff, InvestFashion), The Tandem Series and Fashion.edu.
