For the third time, the international competition of designers European Fashion Union was held in Budapest. The competition lasted two days and hosted more than 36 designers from all over the world on its podium.
As part of the competition, the European Fashion Union Awards 2017 ceremony was also held in Budapest. A panel of experts from 11 countries selected the best specialists and presented the awards. Among them were style expert Alexander Belov, who was rightfully nominated as "Stylist of the Year", Daria Beloyvan, who received the nomination "Stylist-Expert of the Year", Tatyana Melnik, who received the title of "Jewelry Designer" and a number of other fashion specialists. The international jury, which included representatives from Italy, China, Poland, Russia, Belgium, and Ukraine, evaluated more than 40 shows by young designers from different countries. Special mention was given to the spring/summer 2018 collections “Tropical Luxe” by Design School “ArtFuture”, the collection of designers Ksenia Vesnina, and others. The winners received internships and advanced training courses at fashion schools in Europe.
The participants of the competition were truly worthy, each one unique and interesting in their own way. It is very valuable to become a part of such an event, and even more so to receive the nomination “Stylist of the Year” — Alexander Belov shares his impressions.
The competition expresses special gratitude to the long-term partners of the event, the international competition of young designers “Admiralty Needle” (St. Petersburg, Russia) and the Krakow School of Arts SAPU Fashion School (Poland).
