PHILIPPE POURHASHEMI REPORTS ON CLUJ FASHION WEEK

Dora Abodi's finale

Dear Shaded Viewers,

The designer shows started last night and the venue was packed. Some collections were quite creative and had an interesting point of view. Here are some of the highlights.

Silvia Serban's collection was sophisticated and chic, with a conceptual flair

Ada Bucsa made a statement with futuristic looks and metal shoes

Bianca Pop's collection was fun, flirty and feminine

I liked Wilhelmina Arz's play on deconstruction

Some key silhouettes, in grey and black, from Universitatea Cluj

I liked Dora Abodi's dresses and thought she had the best bags

Best,

Philippe
