The magnificent Galerie Bourbon welcomes a rhapsody of planetary talents, under the visionary direction of Gentiana Dervishi
The city of Paris was the stage for an extraordinary event that redefined the canons of global elegance: the GX Fashion Week, held in the iconic Galerie Bourbon, radiated the very essence of contemporary fashion. Orchestrating this masterpiece of style and creativity was Gentiana Dervishi, far-sighted president of the APS Showteam Association, who had already triumphed at the GX Fashion Week in Milan just ten days earlier. A vibrant mosaic of global talent radiated the Parisian catwalk in a crescendo of aesthetics and sophistication, hosting designers from every latitude of the planet, thus representing every continent except Oceania. This mosaic of creativity was also echoed in the extraordinary heterogeneity of the models, resulting in an authentic show of transcultural and intercontinental fashion, elevated by a polyphony of styles and traditions.
One of the most evocative and eccentric moments was the debut of Hippy Samurai, who captured attention with a harmonious fusion between tradition and avant-garde, bringing to the stage a sartorial symphony in which the ancient art of Japanese fabric was married to innovative theatrical performances, transforming the fashion show into a true living work of art, capable of going beyond the limits of fashion to flow into the sublime. The designer Erika Yulisa Ibarra Vega (Skin by Erika Vega) made her triumphant entry from Mexico, celebrating underwear creations that include bands and corsets, as well as other wonders that enchanted the VIPs present and which proved to be a hymn to femininity. Erika Yeimeleth Islava Ibarra (Yei Design) has entered the world of fashion with a collection that already promises to be revolutionary, promising to rewrite the codes of the sector with a fresh and visionary look.
Owana Lima (Nicteel), on the other hand, has introduced a touch of radical sustainability, fusing Guatemala's rich cultural tradition with rigorous attention to eco-friendly ethics. His collection demonstrated how elegance can be compatible with a concrete commitment to the environment, offering garments that celebrate natural beauty without compromising it. Another moment of great impact was given by Ketty Nuñez (Kenu). The designer has masterfully managed to blend chromatic exuberance and passion with the precision and rigorous sobriety of Swiss design. Each garment represented a dialectical encounter between energy and composure, exuberance and restraint, affirming his vision of a fashion that can be both expressive and rigorous. Mokodu Fall, with its monochromatic collection, brought Africa to life in a symbolic narrative full of meaning.
His clothes, characterized by contrasts between black and white, evoked the essence of the African savannah, capturing the primordial power of the continent. Through a visual narrative full of suggestions, Fall has been able to translate a powerful and universal language into fabric, which transcends geographical borders to touch deep chords of the human soul. Closing this apotheosis of creativity and style was Fouad Guerfi ??(Fouad Couture), who with his collection entitled "You Better-Fly Butterfly" offered a sophisticated reflection on the theme of metamorphosis and grace. Inspired by butterflies, the ultimate symbol of transformation, he was able to reinterpret traditional Algerian costumes with modernity, infusing them with a lightness and fluidity that enhanced their essence without ever betraying their history.
The efficiency and organizational mastery behind an event of this magnitude are no different. Alessia Xhafa impeccably coordinated the technical aspect of the event, while Arta Kola and Ledi Dupi coordinated the Hair-Make-up section with the collaboration of Barbara Screti's AB Pro Make-up Academy.
All thanks to the prestigious professionals such as Liljana Grembi, Valentina Shiala and Liri Maletaj, Bruna Mandri, Jetmira Rrucaj, Silvana Merkoqi, Alessandra Ruggeri, Azzurra Palmisano, Rosaura Epifani, Alicia Mancino, Martina Dimitri, Federica De Padova. The media coverage, meticulously curated by Cristina Iannò and Alessio Marrari, ensured that the event reached a global audience, transmitting the essence and message of this extraordinary celebration of fashion to the entire world. At the end of the evening, Gentiana Dervishi shared a reflection that captured the spirit of this edition: “This GX Fashion Week Paris represents the quintessence of our vision: celebrating diversity, excellence and creativity without borders. We have created a platform that not only celebrates talent, but promotes cultural dialogue through the universal language of fashion. We are proud to have shown the world the transformative power of design, which can unite and inspire.”
The Event has left an indelible mark on the firmament of international fashion, demonstrating how the aesthetic sector can translate into a powerful vehicle for intercultural dialogue, capable of uniting different traditions, visions and sensitivities in a single, extraordinary celebration of beauty and innovation. . And now, the wait for the next editions is already feverish, with the promise of continuing to surprise and innovate in the name of diversity, inclusion and eco-friendly.
