Bazaar Fashion Forward. Fashion goes forward!
11 March 2010
In 2010 Harper’s Bazaar, the magazine about fashion and luxury, launches the project Bazaar Fashion Forward, which is directed on search and support of young Ukrainian fashion-talents: designers, journalists and photographers.
On March, 10th a promo-campaign starts and together with it, a registration of participants begins on web-site of Bazaar Fashion Forward www.bazaarfashionforward.com. The mission of the project is to create a modern history of Ukrainian fashion. The magazine will help to raise Ukrainian fashion industry to the world level.
Uniqueness of the project is an integrated approach. A team of the finalists of Bazaar Fashion Forward – designer, journalist and photographer – will create the original project which will take a worthy place in their portfolio. Besides Harper’s Bazaar will give a possibility to winners to pass training in the office of the magazine or exchange experiences with the young, but already well-known fashion-designer.
Preliminary results of Bazaar Fashion Forward can be seen already on Ukrainian Fashion Week. On March, 15th at 19:00 Sasha Kanevski will show a collection fall-winter 2010/2011 which was strictly analyzed in the New York office of Bazaar US. Natalia Guzenko, the editor-in-chief of Harper’s Bazaar Ukraine, together with fashion-department of Bazaar US analyzed Sashas’ sketches and made accurate recommendations for completion of its collection.
The trip of Sasha Kanevski to New York became possible after summarizing of an editorial part of project Bazaar Fashion Forward. We remind that in December issue the material about nine young Ukrainian designers whom Bazaar selected in a short list by results of their work in 2009 has been published. 9 designers entered into a short list: VIVI, Ksusha Marchenko, Natalia Kamenskaja and Olesya Kononova, Lilya Litkovskaya, Irina Krasilnikova, Lyudmila Sedljar and Victoria Chikulaj, Sasha Kanevsky.
