International Fashion Showcase (IFS) has selected 16 designers from across the globe who will showcase a series of compelling installations to represent their respective country. The designers will explore politics, sustainability, identity and heritage and show their latest designs in immersive environments.
The countries represented are Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, India, Georgia, Italy, Kenya, Lebanon, Lithuania, Netherlands, Rwanda, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Uruguay and Vietnam.
The collections presented will offer a balanced mix of women’s wear and menswear exploring topical but universally shared issues and present new ideas and solutions that are shaping fashion globally. These designers will be supported through a bespoke online program, which will cover all aspects of business development from branding to sales and production to sustainability. This tailored cultural residency and business skills training will give the emerging designers the professional support that is often difficult to access, provided by some of the UK’s leading fashion and creative experts.
