“This BRICS+ Fashion Summit can become one of the engines of growth for emerging markets if it can align the various participating fashion industries with products which are relevant to global markets particularly with sustainable supply chains. Right now the fashion in emerging markets is fragmented, it needs a platform that consolidates them and presents them. This Summit has the potential to be that,” shares Ajai Vir Singh.
The International Exhibition “Heritage” will be a highlight of the Summit. It will showcase the powerful influence of national and cultural heritage of BRICS countries, as well as countries in Asia, Africa, and Latin America on modern clothing design and reflect the global trend of embracing cultural codes in a contemporary context.
Following the BRICS+ Fashion Summit, Moscow Fashion Week will take centre stage from 4 to 9 October, featuring talented designers from Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Russia, South Africa, Costa Rica, and the UAE.
