Twice a year during past eight years Sarajevo Fashion Week (SFW) hosted designers from all over the Europe and the world.
We managed to make all Regional countries attending Sarajevo Fashion Week regularly since 2000. Besides them, we hosted great designer names from Italy, France, Switzerland, Holland, Germany, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, the whole Europe, Asia, Africa, America, and almost the whole world.
We have years of good cooperation and presentation of Bosnian fashion scene in Europe and around the world, all under motto: Sarajevo Fashion Week - Fashion without borders.We succeeded not only in promoting Bosnian designers but also in commercializing local brands.
All these years young designers have created special part of Sarajevo Fashion Week. We have invested a lot in their affirmation and it is done in continuity and on very high level. Today there are many designers who became famous and recognized as brand due to our endless support. We also help well-known designers to reach consumers and companies and that way fashion in BIH becomes profitable profession.
Behind us there are fashion fairs and fashion weeks that we visited throughout the world. We visited all continents and we have open road for cooperation with many World Fashion Association. During these events we were promoting BIH designers and models as well as young designers from the Region.
Having in mind great interest of media for Sarajevo Fashion Week, all well known designers that participate in SFW have excellent possibilities for promotion in this part of Europe.
We are proud that they always want to come back to Sarajevo thanks to positive energy that we all shares during these two weeks.
We continue to be capital of fashion in South-east Europe. Therefore we are very proud to say that we are the capital of European Festival of Design. We hope that you will join us in sharing our creative dreams
