THE ESSENCE

Ērika Šmeļkova: "Atgriežoties no SHA — pazīstamā veselības uzlabošanas centra Spānijā, tiku apbērta ar komplimentiem, no kuriem glaimojošākie — tu burtiski staro, izskaties kā iemīlējusies! Vai tiešām tikai četrās dienās, kas pavadītas SHA, iespējamas šādas pārvērtības? Jo šoreiz bija runa ne tikai par ārējo izskatu, bet arī to atbrīvotības, dabiska viegluma un prieka sajūtu, kas ir cilvēka visskaistākā un spožākā rota."

The 41st edition of Riga Fashion Week proved that style knows no borders. From October 20 to 24, the Latvian capital became a crossroads of international fashion, drawing not only industry insiders but also notable dignitaries. Latvia's Minister of Culture Agnese Lāce joined ambassadors from Uzbekistan, the UAE, Poland, Kazakhstan, and other nations in the front rows—a testament to fashion's power as cultural currency and soft diplomacy. But the real measure of RFW's growing influence was visible in the press rows. 

SVIESTS is the new project by stylist Sergey Hatanzeisky (Volga Vintage / Volga Berlin). This season features a collaboration with SEXYSTYLE — the largest adult store in the Baltics. The collection and show are staged in the aesthetics of an exclusive New York club. The themes revolve around freedom, intrigue and provocation, with the presentation creating an atmosphere of secrecy.

Jūlija Špakova: "Mans «jā» izskanēja Ņujorkas Centrālparkā Ziemassvētku priekšvakarā –tā liktenis parūpējās, lai ar šo notikumu aizsāktos arī mūsu svētku dekoru aģentūras «Zīda Ziedi» stāsts."
