PNG Fashion will be represented in Russia next month (October 3-5).
Ms Philma Kelegai, Founder and Managing Director of PNG Fashion Week, is attending the BRICS+ Fashion Summit in Moscow. BRICS stands for Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa.
The global event, the largest of its kind for the emerging fashion markets, will bring together industry leaders, heads of fashion associations, manufacturers, designers, and experts from around the world to discuss the future of fashion.
The highlight of the Summit will be the International Exhibition ‘Heritage’. It will showcase the powerful influence of national and cultural heritage of BRICS countries, as well as countries in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. The founder of PNG Fashion Week will observe this event and make a presentation on ‘Heritage’.
It will also look at modern clothing design and reflect the global trend of embracing cultural codes in a contemporary context.
Ms Kelegai said, “As a leader in this space in PNG, I am excited to see how connections like this that foster collaboration and exchange can lead to massive returns on investment and invaluable reach not just fashion in PNG but brand PNG.”
She added, “PNG deserves to be seen on global platforms, its art, culture, story and rich history is undeniable and I am proud to represent PNG at this global forum.”
Following the BRICS+ Fashion Summit, Moscow Fashion Week will take center stage from October 4th to 9th, featuring talented designers from Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Russia, South Africa, Costa Rica and the UAE.
