Zoe for Chain: Virtual Fashion Show

Zoe gets to walk along the runway for Chain from Argentina. The pieces of the collection are designed by Lucía Chain. The pieces will be handmade. But this is not the only brand. Anciela, Alkhanashvili and duet.by.me are just some of the labels that will present their collections in the coming days. The focus of the whole Fashion Week is on the topic “Sustainability”.

In total, there will be 100 different participants from 34 countries at the international Fashion Week. Terms such as “zero waste” and also “upcycling” will play an important role here. So it is of course an honor for our Zoe to be able to run at such a fashion show. After all, the term “sustainability” is not foreign to her.
