PNG Fashion Week launches official website

The website will be in full swing in time for the fashion runway this Saturday, August 20.

The runway event will be featured on the website, showcasing to the world the designs that will go onto the runway.

Ultimately, the website stands to serve the purpose of online marketing, which director Janet Sios says, has been identified as an important platform, over the workshop period.

She says the website will be used to introduce PNG designers and their respective brands and interact with interested buyers.

PNG Fashion Week theme – ‘Tribal Eclectic’

The desire here is to bring different aspects of the PNG culture on the runway that will go on to attract international recognition.

The event will feature seven dynamic, young and upcoming designers, who will use this platform to launch their brands, and embark down a new journey for the first time ever.

The event will start with a three-day workshop at Holiday Inn from August 17 – 19.

Click-TV to partner PNG Fashion Week

The one year old television station in PNG teamed up with the committee only last week, for a three year contract.

Announcing the partnership yesterday at the newly built Stanley Hotel and Suites, Ruth Kekedo of Click TV said this move is to promote PNG culture.

“This is a wonderful synergy to provide a good platform for PNG to promote our culture and that’s one thing that Click- TV embraces – the promotion of PNG culture,” Kekedo said.
