10 FAULTless Collections from Moldovan Brands Runway 2023
While I’ll admit I did not have too much knowledge of Moldovan Brands Runway or its place in the fashion world before our trip, I am pleased to say I left the event hopeful, excited but most importantly impressed by the collections and overall organisation of the event.
This year promised to be unlike any other, with a unique blend of artistry, technology, and culture and I’m happy to report that the two-day extravaganza organised by APIUS and ZIPHOUSE certainly put Moldovan design and potential in the AI space on the map.
Hosted in the Moldovan capital of Chisinau, Moldovan Brands Runway is more than a fashion week, it’s an experience. Taking place 8-9 September 2023, Moldovan Brands Runway featured hands-on tech demos and industry experts on hand to discuss their work in the field and some of the most exciting and innovative tech as well as provided a creative outlet for young fashion lovers to engage with their community through street style competitions and much more.
This year’s event showcased a plethora of talented designers, each bringing their unique vision to the runway and proving themselves truly FAULTless. 11 Moldovan designers with established fashion brands presented alongside 2 young designers who were winners of the young prize as well as international designers, from Armenia, Ukraine and Romania respectively. From bold and sophisticated ensembles to minimalistic elegance, these top collections left a lasting impression on attendees, fashion enthusiasts and of course, us! Check out this list of the 10 FAULTless Collections from Moldovan Brands Runway 2023.
