Ganni’s Support for 7 Emerging Talents
The Absence of Ganni at Copenhagen Fashion Week
Ganni’s absence from Copenhagen Fashion Week this season has caused quite a stir in the fashion world. For years, Ganni’s runway presentations have been a highlight of the event, showcasing not only their collections but also pushing the boundaries of creativity and innovation.
Supporting Emerging Talents
Instead of participating in the traditional runway show, Ganni has chosen to give back to the fashion community by supporting 7 emerging Danish artists and designers. This initiative, titled “Future, Talent, Fabrics,” features commissioned work by these talents using materials developed through Ganni’s Fabrics of the Future project.
The Exhibition
The exhibition, held at Nikolaj Art Gallery, allows these emerging creatives to showcase their work and connect with buyers. The exhibition is not only a platform for the artists but also a reflection of Ganni’s commitment to sustainability and innovation in fashion.
