Aps Showteam selects designers who transform perspectives into innovative concepts and intuitions into avant-garde, with interpretations of the highest sartorial quality.
On February 26, 2025, the Chiostri di San Barnaba will transform into the hub of international fashion with the new edition of GX Fashion Week Milano. This event, eagerly awaited by fashion enthusiasts, stands out for its ability to combine luxury and sustainability, craftsmanship and innovation, offering an exceptional platform for emerging stylists and established designers.
Organized by the APS Showteam Association, led by its President Gentiana Dervishi, GX Fashion Week Milano is an event that goes beyond the simple exhibition of collections: it is an engaging experience, a living laboratory where the future of fashion takes shape. “The Cloisters of San Barnaba, with their centuries-old history, represent the perfect setting for an event that aims to combine the charm of the past with contemporary stylistic avant-gardes.
The Gothic vaults and ancient arches of this former convent will come alive with creations that reinterpret the concepts of beauty and responsibility, demonstrating how high fashion can evolve without compromising environmental ethics” says Gentiana Dervishi in reference to the combination of the choice of location and the glamorous purposes of trends.
The entire day will be marked by moments of great artistic and cultural value, with exclusive fashion shows and direct interactions between designers, buyers and the public. GX Fashion Week Milano is not just a glamorous event, but a concrete opportunity for stylists and fashion entrepreneurs to connect with an international network of professionals, media and influencers, all gathered to discover the trends of the future. "Fashion must be a tool for change, capable of combining aesthetics and responsibility" says President Gentiana Dervishi. "GX Fashion Week Milano is the perfect stage to demonstrate that innovation and sustainability can coexist.
We want to redefine the pattern of interaction in the world of fashion, overcoming the superficiality of digital platforms to create an authentic and profound experience. Our aim is to build a dynamic ecosystem where designers, buyers and enthusiasts can interact in an environment that stimulates creativity and encourages the exchange of ideas.
This approach allows us to break down traditional barriers between producer and consumer, creating a continuous flow of feedback and inspiration that fuels innovation in the sector. Our vision extends beyond the moment of the fashion show, aiming to establish lasting relationships that can positively influence the entire life cycle of the fashion product, from conception to production, up to the end-user experience.
This multifaceted dialogue between art, entrepreneurship and the social dimension of fashion represents the foundation for a sustainable and conscious evolution of the fashion industry", underlines Gentiana Dervishi. The collections presented on the catwalk will be characterized by an extremely high level of tailoring, with creations that redefine the canons of contemporary elegance for men and women. Fine fabrics, eco-friendly materials and excellent workmanship will be the protagonists of a fashion that is not only aesthetic, but also the expression of a new awareness.
The stylistic research will translate into unique garments, capable of combining tradition and innovation, experimentation and craftsmanship. Future trends will emerge in sophisticated silhouettes, impeccable cuts and details designed to enhance the timeless quality of true Made in Italy. Milan, always a point of reference for the fashion sector, once again confirms itself as the hive of creativity and innovation.
Its ability to attract brands, emerging talents and global fashion leaders makes the city the ideal setting for high-impact events that do not limit themselves to showcasing collections, but generate engaging experiences, networking opportunities and connections between designers, cutting-edge customers and industry stakeholders. GX Fashion Week Milano stands out for this: an event that is not just a showcase, but a meeting point between those who create fashion and those who make it part of their daily lives. Buyers, VIPs, journalists, influencers and fashion business entrepreneurs will have the opportunity to explore the talent of selected designers up close, witnessing a new way of conceiving luxury: no longer based only on exclusivity, but also on responsibility. Elegance is no longer defined only by appearance, but by the intrinsic value of what you wear.
GX Fashion Week Milano wants to be the symbol of this revolution, an event that celebrates conscious beauty and ethical luxury, without compromising on quality and refinement. The event on February 26 will therefore be much more than a simple fashion show: it will be a manifesto for the future of fashion. The catwalk will feature exquisite collections carefully designed and packaged by absolute excellences in the world of glamour and global fashion: Umberto Michele Perrera, Margarita Kola, Topmodel TV Collective Austria, a highly select group of transalpine designers, made up of Herbert Traumüller, Claudia Angela Gertrude, Christa Franz, Michaela Egger, Elisabeth Gottardo, Adriana Agostini from Romania, and even the jewels will have a very important echo offered by the style of the Mubri collective, represented on the catwalk by the creations of Alejandra Cortez and Ariana Onno. Hair Make-up Artist Coordinators Corrado Costanzo, Arta Kola, Alex Radulescu. Director of the APS Showteam staff coordination Alessia Xhafa, a highly established professional.
