Aurora Fashion Week: St Petersburg Russia

AURORA FASHION WEEK which takes place in St. Petersburg Russia is an International Fashion Week on the rise! It is already one of the most important fashion industry events in Russia both at regional and federal levels. But it has become increasingly global. It is a new forum for fashion business and fashion culture, targeted at Russia, European countries and post-soviet areas. They are bringing in designers from all around the world however, so it really is a great showcase for what's going on in the fashion world internationally. It is based in St.Petersburg and runs 2 times a year. If you're a designer interested in participating in Aurora Fashion Week, you should mail presentation materials (lookbook, collection photos, biography of the designer) to Ekaterina at This email address is being protected from spambots.
