What are you most looking forward to about the upcoming Berlin Fashion Week?
This is my second visit to Berlin Fashion Week and I am happy to witness the emergence of a new attraction on the European fashion map. Of course, I am waiting for the shows of Ukrainian brands, for whom Berlin has become a second home, but I am also curious to see the collections of Namilia, Fassbender and S1FOG.
What makes Berlin unique as a fashion city for you?
Berlin is like a cocktail in which a variety of ingredients are mixed. And that's what makes it interesting, very different people live here, each district has its own atmosphere and mood, and all this makes Fashion Week in Berlin very diverse and interesting. It is also imbued with the spirit of freedom, where there is no norm and no clearly defined style - everyone shows themselves as they want. And of course, rave culture is important for the city, which affects both the appearance of the guests at the shows and the special atmosphere of the shows themselves. I also liked that the brands look for interesting places to present their collections. Yes, sometimes it was difficult to move from one place to another, but this helped to get to know the city better and immerse yourself in the atmosphere of a particular brand.
Which designers or fashion shows particularly caught your eye during your last visit to Berlin Fashion Week? What made it unforgettable?
I really liked the Namilia collection - great atmosphere, promising collection and incredibly diverse casting. That was a strong statement. I also fondly remember the atmospheric LML show that took place in St. Mary's Church. The style of the Fassbender brand is very dear to me personally - I want to see such clothes in my closet and wear them every day.
