The location? A sleek, modernist Mercedes-Benz residence will house the runway — an elegant stage for designers from Italy, Georgia, Turkey, Israel, and beyond to present their latest collections. Each brings a unique aesthetic, enriching the program with cultural diversity and cutting-edge design philosophies. Meanwhile, exhibitions and pop-up showrooms will spotlight local brands and emerging creatives — offering them a chance to connect with a global audience and the broader fashion press.

 
 
 
 
 

This is not simply a parade of silhouettes and hemlines. Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Azerbaijan is presenting a future-forward agenda: a schedule filled with interactive presentations, panel talks, and curated conversations that invite deeper dialogue between industry veterans, critics, and next-gen visionaries.

But what truly sets this event apart is its bold embrace of innovation. Artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and augmented reality are seamlessly integrated into shows and performances, elevating fashion from visual spectacle to immersive experience. These technological integrations aim not only to dazzle but to reshape how we think about fashion storytelling in a digital era.
