Malta Fashion Week 2012

All the best of fashion design and modelling in one week of events

The Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Malta opened on the evening of Thursday the 3rd with a fashion photography exhibition at St. George’s Square in Valletta. Around 40 large prints were illuminated and laid out around the square as the public could walk around them throughout both the day and night. Several local and international artists had their works displayed for a whole week in this exhibition that would not have been possible without the support of Logografix. 

On Sunday 6th May, there was the Pronovias Bridal & Cocktail show that was held in the incredible Casino Maltese in Valletta, while on Monday then, it was time for Charles & Ron, who presented their Fall/Winter Collection for 2012/2013. The collection, called So Hot, So Cold brought about contrasting elements that together created a perfect balance. This launch was held at the Mediterranean Conference Centre in collaboration with Viventy Jewels by 202 Jewellery. 

On Tuesday 8th May, there was an interesting exhibition held at the Mercedes-Benz Showroom in Lija, which displayed colourful theatrical and period costumes, held in collaboration with Teatru Manoel. Wednesday saw the Maiden show from Fleur Kelinza fashion, held at The Corinthia Palace Hotel & Spa in Attard. 

Thursday it was the opportunity for new designers to launch their collections while on Friday Russian designers teamed up with Maltese designers to launch their collection. Of note was the new swimwear collection by the Maltese model Tiffany Pisani, who was crowned Britain’s Next Top Model in 2010.
