What started in 2005 as an idea amongst friends who were passionate about fashion and global issues has since grown to a multi-event campaign with outreach and partnerships throughout the world. In 2007, Fashion Fights Poverty successfully launched FFP-Miami (a first-of-its kind fashion extravaganza featuring the ethical designs of Orangia). In 2007, FFP also launched the inaugural Fashion Fights Poverty Forum where panelists from across the fashion, development and corporate communities address the question "Can Fashion Fight Poverty." And soon afterwards, the 3rd Annual FFP Fashion Show brought 8 designers from across the world to Washington DC (effectively doubling the size of the show from previous years).

Along with glamour and beauty of couture, however, shines a unifying message: that Fashion (both industry and consumers) have a responsibility to consider how "looking good" impacts humanity and the environment. As part of the United Nations Association, the nation's largest foreign policy organization, FFP carries an important mandate: to broaden the dialogue about global poverty and educate consumers and citizens alike on how their choices can change the world.
