Fashion week in Budapest

More than 2,000 people attended the main event of the Budapest Central European Fashion Week (BCEFW), which celebrates its 10th anniversary this autumn, organized by the Hungarian Fashion and Design Agency (HFDA) at the Museum of Fine Arts.

Budapest Fashion Week included 24 brands that showed their new products on the catwalk. In addition to Hungarians, 2 Polish and 7 Ukrainian designers were presented at the fashion week in Budapest.

The anniversary BCEFW event paid special attention to Ukrainian fashion designers. The show featured the brands GUDU and DARJA DONEZZ, as well as the Ukrainian Collective Show, in which collections were presented by: KIR KHARTLEY, SIDLETSKIY, STARCHAK, YADVIGA NETYKSHA and LISABO. The tenth anniversary of BCEFW was held in the spirit of cooperation: the Agency supports Ukrainian talents and thanks in every way for cooperation with Ukrainian Fashion Week.

The style panorama was very diverse: the audience saw collections from classic styles to streetwear brands, and almost 30 side events colored the Budapest fashion scene across the city. In total, the series of events was attended by almost 4,000 visitors.

“The Hungarian Fashion and Design Agency is constantly striving to support regional designers and strengthen relations between neighboring countries. Humanitarian aid is especially important to us, so we definitely wanted to help Ukrainian designers present their collections to the global fashion community during the 10th BCEFW. We help them present themselves to an international audience, as they will not be able to show their collections in their homeland this season due to the war in Ukraine. As at previous events, we expect guests from all over the world, which will be a great opportunity to expand the international connections of brands,» – comments Anita Forintos-Szűcs, Deputy Director General of the Hungarian Fashion and Design Agency.

Fashion Week shows

The most anticipated item on the BCEFW program each season is the two-day series of fashion shows, organized this year by almost 600 people. The picture was rather ambiguous: some designers envisioned spring with traditional floral patterns and vibrant colors, while others already celebrated summer with models inspired by trips to the East.

There was no shortage of elegant products. Spectators could be seen in sequined suits and satin evening dresses. Great interest surrounded the Ukrainian shows, but at the same time Polish designers also had great success. In the hall of the “Renaissance” museum, visitors had the opportunity to purchase the exhibited products of accessory designers between shows.

Among the Hungarian brands presented were AERON, ARTISTA, The DAIGE, EVELINFINK, Kata Szegedi, Katti Zoób, Nanushka, The NINI, PELSO, Romani, Sentiments, Thefour, Tomcsanyi, Viktoriavarga, Virag Kerenuy, Zsigmond.
