Back on track

The Third Edition of the Bangalore Fashion Week (BFW) will be held from July 22 to 25 at Crowne Plaza in Electronic City. This edition promises to bring in a lot more designers, all in an effort to give it a global focus.

In addition to 25 odd designers showcasing their collections, the fashion week will have auctions wherein all garments worn by celebrities will be put on auction. There are BFW agents in Europe, France and United States of America who will evaluate the garments, popularise and promote them on an international platform. The BFW label is an online portal where designers can sell their garments and interact with other designers as well. 

Another addition to the fashion week this time is the India Diamond week where top diamond designers will showcase their wares. The slot after 7 pm on all days will be dedicated to the diamond show.

Designer J J Valaya will close the fashion week. Some of the other designers are Shymal and Bhumica, AM and PM, Michelle Salins, Aslam Khan, Lina Tipnis, Swapnil Shinde, Ramesh Dembla, Archana Kochhar and Neerus.

Talking about the models for the show at a press conference, Feroz, one of the organisers said, “the models for the show have already been finalised. Top models from across the country have been roped in. And each designer will have their own show stoppers.”
