The most Mediterranean trends of the moment @ 080 Barcelona Fashion 2018
Barcelona’s fashion week, better known as the 080 Barcelona Fashion was born in July 2007. It was created to give visibility to national independent designers. It can be considered as an international reference event, which presents each season the collections of the most transgressing designers. Each edition counts with the participation of more than 30 brands, 40,000 professionals and the accreditation of more than 500 media representatives in the fashion industry.
Since the 2016 edition, a novelty has been incorporated: an ephemeral showroom in which the collections of the world-renowned brands are presented together with emerging and/or prestigious Catalan collections. This new initiative has created a commercial springboard, promoting the brands and their designers internationally.
This week we are at the edge of the opening of the 22nd edition of the 080 Barcelona Fashion. It will be held at the Sant Pau Modernist Campus during June 25th to 29th. A modernist architectural ensemble that condenses the essence of the event and synthesizes the identity of a cosmopolitan Barcelona with its own deeply rooted culture. This edition will present different proposals and trends of 27 creators.
The 22nd edition will be presenting the 2019 Summer season collection, mainly the swimwear. Among the new additions to the Barcelona fashion week we find firms such as: Imagoza Z1 Fashion, Xevi Fernandez and Killing Weekend, which will be on display from next Wednesday.
In addition, 080 will have a guest of honor: André Leon Talley. The previous editor of the Vogue magazine will present the documentary about his life: ”The gospel according to André”.
For events of this quality, it is important to choose the venue with its own character, facilities at a highest level and exceptional service.
Brands such as Levi’s or Stradivarius have been promoting their products or organised casting sessions in our multipurpose space as does the 080 with its pop-up shops. We had the pleasure of hosting a very special social brunch organised by @levis_spain for the presentation of its jeans model “501 Skinny”. The fashions bloggers like @dulceida also attended the event in The baSEment Barcelona where had a chance to test our photography set and an unparalleled pop-up shop.
The baSEment Barcelona, familiar with the fashion design and creative industries, knows perfectly well that they are an indisputable cultural phenomenon. We, like the 080 Barcelona Fashion and Sant Pau Campus, are a perfect platform for the promotion and dissemination of local and international fashion. We have all the ingredients to create a unique event: for the first and foremost, through the unique and warm interior design of the space, any brand can be sure to transmit its message and impress its customers. We believe that the environment of presenting the product is as important as the quality of the product itself. The fact of being located in the center of Barcelona, one of the most important design capitals of the Mediterranean, with an exceptional climate, where the avant-garde combines with constant innovation and its own style, places us as the perfect place to accommodate any quality event such as 080 Barcelona.
