"New Creators Met Together in Europe" Exhibition

21_21 Design Sight
Finished
In order to promote talented new designers and help launch them to success, Japan Fashion Week in Tokyo (JFW) will hold an exhibition called "New Creators Met Together in Europe" at the 21_21 Design Sight, a new design center that opened in Tokyo last spring.

One of JFW's keywords is the "incubation" of young designers, and they have been making efforts to support talented designers that have shown great potential. At the 5th JFW in Tokyo they intend to continue strengthening their support for young talent, while holding this new event as a gateway to success for new designers from both Japan and abroad. Asia is becoming an increasingly vital part of the world fashion market with the pop culture Mecca of Tokyo as its center, a budding fashion city that differentiates itself from the more traditional centers of Paris and Milan with the energy of its young designers. JFW in Tokyo strives to provide opportunities to the up-and-coming designers of the world that would like to debut in Tokyo or take on new and exciting business ventures.

The participants of "New Creators Met in Europe" have studied at such world renowned places as England's Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design and the Antwerp Royal Academy of Fine Arts Belgium and become acquainted at fashion contests and events in various countries. They have come together for this event in the spirit of doing something exciting together in Tokyo. 6 brands by 11 designers will participate in this event, and although they come from such varied countries as Germany, Israel, Georgia, Taiwan, and Japan, they all share the same passion to transmit their creations from Tokyo to the world. These designers' new creations will be showcased at the 21_21 Design Sight, which also provided valuable support for this event.
