Held from March 14 to 19, Moscow Fashion Week featured over 80 shows and 300 participants, attracting more than 65,000 attendees and gaining increased coverage from international media, celebrities, and influencers.
Newszy: Abu Dhabi – Moscow Fashion Week concluded successfully, reinforcing Moscow’s status as a major fashion hub that brings together emerging and established designers from around the globe. From March 14 to 19, the city’s runways hosted designers from Russia, Spain, Turkey, China, and beyond, with over 80 shows, 300 participants, more than 65,000 attendees and increased coverage from international media, highlighting the city’s importance in shaping the global fashion scene and opening up new opportunities for promoting independent fashion.
During the event, Russian designers showcased collections blending current trends with innovative ideas, cultural influences, and traditional elements. For example, Masterpeace presented a collection inspired by the theater and royal aesthetics, featuring regal-hemmed dresses, convertible skirts, satin textures, and corsets. Julia Dalakian incorporated “The Great Gatsby”-inspired designs, featuring feminine dresses and tunics as well as garments and outwear in deep red and green tones, accented with luxurious fur details. The men’s collection by House of Leo included classic merino wool suits, trousers and shirts, with jackets hand-embellished and quilted with gold thread.
Meanwhile, the 404 Not Found brand offered contrasting yet harmonious combinations, pairing light silk and chiffon with dense leather and tweed, and combining feminine shapes with bold prints, including timeless leopard patterns. One of the highlights of the week was the show by Spanish brand Madame & Mister Sibarita. According to the brand’s designer Patricia Emma Fernandez Ortiz, the brand fuses Eastern mystique with a Western touch in designs that blend sensuality, spirituality, and luxury. The collection is guided by the purest sustainable materials and quiet refinement, where natural fabrics define the season. Organza and chinon add lightness and movement, allowing silhouettes to unfold naturally; silk, bemberg, and bamboo bring fluidity and softness; vegan tomato leather adds subtle structure.
“I can only be grateful to be part of such a platform like the Moscow Fashion Week and it’s really been beyond our expectations. Such an infrastructure is to compete with the top fashion weeks in the world. It’s been so far the best international experience and exposure for our brand in the 2 years of existence we are just turning now,” said Patricia Emma Fernandez Ortiz about her impressions of Moscow Fashion Week.
The scale of the event and the diversity of participating designers underlined Moscow’s growing role in the international fashion landscape, providing a platform for creative exchange and cross-cultural exposure.
