A WALK AROUND RIGA – TEXT BY PHILIPPE POURHASHEMI

Dear Shaded Viewers,

This is the first time I've covered Riga Fashion Week and I took some time this morning to explore the city. With several architectural gems -ranging from medieval landmarks to Art Nouveau buildings- Riga is undeniably romantic. The shows are scheduled in the evening and I will start reporting on them tomorrow.
