• Eight international and regional designers chosen by Vogue Italia will present their collections with an exclusive fashion show at The Dubai Mall
• The 25 finalists of Who is On Next? Dubai, a scouting for emerging talent, will see their collections highlighted in a special design showcase
Organised by Emaar Properties in partnership with Vogue Italia and supported by the Dubai Design & Fashion Council, the third edition of the Vogue Fashion Dubai Experience will take place on October 29 and 30. Once again defining Dubai as a global fashion capital, the highlights of 2015 are the Catwalk Fashion Show, Who is on Next? Dubai and the Fashion Lectures.
“The Vogue Fashion Dubai Experience not only brings the best of fashion in the world to Dubai but also serves to encourage the next generation of designers,” said Franca Sozzani, Editor in Chief of Vogue Italia. “We believe that it is important to provide emerging talents with credible platforms to present their works to the world. As a new global fashion capital, Dubai is an ideal destination. We are impressed by the works of the young talents and look forward to watching their evolution in the global fashion industry.”
Vogue Fashion Dubai Experience is Emaar Malls flagship fashion event that brings the who’s who in global fashion to The Dubai Mall. The success of the past editions has added to the prestige of Dubai. At the heart of this event is the showcase by the emerging designers at the widely-attended Fashion Show and the newly introduced Designer Showcase presenting the collections of the finalists of Who is On Next? Dubai. They will have the opportunity to display their works to a global audience of fashion celebrities and potentially make their mark in the international industry.
There is tremendous talent and potential among the young generation of designers. Their global outlook, innovative approach to design and a deep passion for the industry must be encouraged to enable them to make their mark internationally. The showcases at Vogue Fashion Dubai Experience serve as compelling platforms that give them the tangible opportunity to be spotted and to grow.
The Catwalk Fashion Show
Encouraging and promoting new talent has always been a priority for the Vogue Fashion Dubai Experience, and the eighth international designers selected for the 2015 fashion show are exceptional examples of a new generation of global promise.
During a colourful fashion show on October 29, the Fashion Catwalk will be graced with the work of Studio One Eighty Nine, The Kayys, Reem Al Kanhal, Arthur Arbesser, Krikor Jabotian, Melitta Baumeister, Xiao Li and L72.
