athens' fashion week 2010

City of Athens Technopolis and ATHENS FASHION PRODUCTIONS (Hellenic Fashion Week production company) are staging FASHION WEEK ATHENS for Autumn-Winter 2009/2010, from March 26 to 29, 2009, at Technopolis, in Gazi (100 Pireos St, Gazi). The Greek designers, who are members of the Hellenic Fashion Designers Association, taking part in FASHION WEEK ATHENS comprise Makis Tselios, Kathy Heyndels, Filep Motwary-Maria Mastori, Konstantinos, Mi-Ro, Christoforos Kotentos, Vassilis Zoulias, Angelos Bratis, Dimitris Dassios, Parthenis, Yiorgos Eleftheriades.

On Sunday, March 29, three new designers will present their collections in a group show entitled "NEWCOMERS", namely Dimitris Zafiriou, Dimitris Petrou and De light (Evi Redziou and Daphne Iliaki), who received an award in the European "New Fashion Designers" Competition, a national contest which took place at the Zappeion Hall in March 2008, within the framework of the Createurope.com programme.
A photography exhibition entitled "Under Exposed", featuring the work of photographer Spyros Poros, will be held at Technopolis during Fashion Week Athens. The exhibition is composed of a collage of photographs from Cuba and, specifically, images from Cuba's National Ballet School and the Cuban Boxing Club. Poros unites two entirely different subjects through his camera lens in a magical way. The exhibition was first presented in New York in February 2008 with great success. The exhibition launch will be held on Friday, March 27, 2009, at 19:00. The TECHNOPOLIS NIGHT BOUTIQUE, where visitors can purchase designer clothing and accessories at very low prices, will operate through the course of the event.
The event is being organised under the aegis of the City of Athens and the Ministry of Development, in cooperation with the Technology and Design Centre (ELKEDE).
