Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Russia is taking place on October, 19-23 at 8 Moscow-based venues simultaneously. Shows from the capital will be topped up with livestreams from four Russian cities.

Due to the current epidemiological situation in the capital, the organizers of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Russia decided to move this season&rsquo;s shows from Manege to independent venues with a focus on livestreams. &ldquo;Our objective is to prevent crowding and comply with every letter of the sanitary guidelines introduced because of the coronavirus infection spreading. Today, safety of our participants and guests is our number one priority. At some venues, we&rsquo;re going to manage the process so not to change the spirit and efficiency of the event by the glove-mask mode,&rdquo; says Alexander Shumsky, President of Russian Fashion Council and Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Russia.

&nbsp;

The upcoming season is going to be unique, as <a href="https://www.instagram.com/mbfwrussia" target="_blank">MBFW Russia</a> schedule is going to unite livestreamed shows from different cities and countries. This time, Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Russia will include special shows by Russian designers, based in St. Petersburg, Sochi, Krasnodar, and Yakutsk. Moreover, a joint show by Indonesian designers livestreamed right from Jakarta will take place during the event. Other announcements on the schedule include fashion houses from Argentina, Peru, UK and USA. &ldquo;The new COVID reality in 2020 offered us an unprecedented opportunity to experiment with the Fashion week format. MBFW Russia is going to become the first fashion week to livestream the shows from 6 locations throughout the globe. This is both technologically and organizationally challenging, and nevertheless, we&rsquo;re starting this project with different cities and countries this season. This format is going to have high potential not only during the closed skies period,&rdquo; Alexander Shumsky is sure.
