Fashion Agenda: Fashion Weeks of This Summer

Here are some of the biggest international fashion events coming up this summer.

Scandinavian fashion weeks

August 8-14

Stockholm, Sweden; Oslo, Norway

While August is a calm month for fashion in general, the Scandinavian countries are using the gap in between seasons to build an alternative scene that attracts more and more visitors each year and that has local designers return from big international fashion cities to show in their home countries.

Lakme Fashion Week

August 16-21

Mumbai, India

With the help of Mercedes Benz, which also sponsors fashion weeks in New York, Sydney, and Berlin, for example, Lakme fashion week has developed into India’s most prestigious fashion event.

Sydney Fashion Festival

August 23-27

Sydney, Australia

The Sydney Fashion Festival features ticketed fashion events for the public, showcasing Australia’s leading designer brands and retailers as their Spring/Summer collections arrive in stores throughout the city. The main fashion shows are held in the Sydney Town Hall and are accompanied by a satellite schedule of fashion and lifestyle events that span the city. The Rosemount Australian Fashion Week is Australia’s most globally-followed fashion event but, like the L’Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival, the Mercedes-Benz Sydney Festival is popular with the locals as it is open to the public.
