Bringing the fashion community together, the platform hosts exclusive multimedia content. From designers, creatives, brand partners, media, retailers and cultural institutions, all will combine. Thus, enabling collaboration and bringing together fashion, culture and technology. This new digital experience will work as a global meet-up point, offering interviews, podcasts, designer diaries, webinars and digital showrooms, providing the opportunity for designers to tell their stories and share their experiences from the last few months.
