BRANKOPOPOVICBLOG: Best of 10th Skopje Fashion Weekend

Ivana Pilja

10th Edition of Fashion Weekend Skopje

From 23rd to the 27th of October 'Skopje Fashion Weekend' took stage to display Macedonian most relevant fashion designers. Twenty fashion designers and brands and several guests from partner countries where on display throughout various Skopje.

Since few editions I have supported Skopje Fashion Weekend as media partner and it pleases me to encounter the growth of the weekend and quality of presented collections. My favorite collections this edition are from designers Jovan Petrovski, Nikola Nikola Petrovski and Serbian guest designer Ivana Pilja.

The event was opened by the Thai-based Macedonian designer Jovan Petrovski with his brands SQUIRE and BLACKOUT and the young designer Jovana Filipovic.

The weekend of 25th and 26th was held in the salon Audi-Porsche Macedonia with shows of designers: LIDIYA GEORGIEVA, Rosica Mrsik, MCouture by Mila Kadriu, Olivera Stakoska, Irina Toseva supported by My:time, Nikola Petrovski, Le brand, Stefanija Naseska and Olgica Gorgieva supported by Oxette.
Fashion Weekend Skopje partners with other fashion weeks with aim to exchange designers. After Rosica Mrsik’s attendance at Serbia Fashion Week in April this year Fashion Weekend Skopje hosted the Serbian designer Marina Micanovic. The Macedonian designer Irina Toseva had a show at Serbia Fashion Week on 15th of October. I also met Irina at the Month of Design Brands & Signs exhibition in Ljubljana.
In partnership with Belgrade Fashion Week as part of the project “Zona45”, the 10th edition of Fashion Weekend Skopje was closed with a fashion show by Serbian avant-garde designer Ivana Pilja who has already worked with celebrities like Lily Allen and Dita von Teese. Furthermore she had presneted her work at FASHIONCLASH Festival, London Fashion Week and most recently in Dubai.
