The best street style from Tbilisi Fashion Spring/summer 2020
The Georgian fashion industry may be smaller than many of its European counterparts, but it packs a big punch. The country’s reputation as an incubator for new talent is well deserved, with native creatives such as Demna Gvasalia and David Koma bursting on to the world stage over the past decade. So, when Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week spring/summer 2020 returns to the country’s capital of Tbilisi from October 31 to November 4, editors, buyers and models alike are sure to make an appearance.
This season’s showcase will host designers in venues across the city, from the tubular Tbilisi Concert Hall to the expansive Vake Park. The official schedule includes celebrity favourite Akà Prodiàshvili, grunge-influenced Blikvanger and minimalist Aleksandre Akhalkatsishvili. There’s also the latest instalment of Mercedes-Benz’s How To series, which sees industry heavy-hitters learn a new skill in 24 hours.
As the shows get underway, the city’s style stars will step out in force. Here, Vogue photographer Søren Jepsen captures all the action curbside.
