[01] Second Greek Fashion Week begins
The second Greek Fashion Week was inaugurated on Friday evening by
Development Minister Dimitris Sioufas and Athens Mayor Dora Bakoyiannis
at the Zappion Mansion.
Thirty-three Greek designers are presenting their creations for the
spring and summer of 2006 with the purpose, as it was stressed, of
Greek fashion becoming known in an effort to enable Greek designers to
cross the country's borders united.
The Greek Fashion Week has now become an institution and is being
organised for the second consecutive time by the Panhellenic Society of
Fashion Designers.
Minister Sioufas said fashion was an element of culture and pointed out
at the same time that fashion was the market's engine. Greece has
promoted arts but fashion was also born here and now with the support
of the state it will also cross the Greek borders to find its position
on the world's map, he added.
