This week I am going to concentrate on Fashion week in Greece!
I know you will say now that Greece cannot be
related with fashion but you are completely wrong!
Athens may not be a fashion metropolis like
Paris, Milan or New York but that does not mean there is a lack of talented new
designers and a dynamic fashion scene.
Not one but two fashion week’s showrooms are
held twice a year, the Athens Fashion Week and Athens Xclusive Designers Week.
Both events are hosting Greek and foreign designers.
Xclusive Designer week (AXDW)
Athens
Xclusive Designers Week by Coca-Cola light also known as AXDW is the official international fashion week in
Greece.
It takes place twice a year presenting both
supreme and current, cutting edge Greek designers along with top international
fashion designers and fashion houses.

AXDW supports new talents by offering the “NEW
DESIGNERS AWARDS”.
What is “NEW DESIGNERS AWARDS” you ask?
Well designer need to represent their work to
the fashion crowd and in order to win , the designer needs to get three
important titles: Best Catwalk, Best Trend-Setter and Best New Designer!
