Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Istanbul

Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Istanbul is the premier fashion event in Turkey that offers an international platform for fashion designers. This event is meant to increase the awareness by inhabitants of the home grown fashion. Highlighting the global presence of Turkish design is one of the main goals, while showing the typical Turkish culture. The fashion designers can showcase their collections to hundreds of industry insiders from all over the world, including retailers, buyers, press members, VIPs and celebrities.

This year Basak Cankes – one of the talented designers – will attend the MBFWI with her “Bashaques” brand. The collection is meant to offer wearable art pieces by combining the artistic works of the famous architect Antoni Gaudi with garments woven in Turkey.
