Milan celebrates international designers and young talents, in a showcase of boundless creativity and sartorial masterpieces that mesmerized the audience.

GX Fashion Week 2025 transformed Milan into a whirlwind of emotions and style, an evening where fashion did not simply walk the runway, but conquered eternity. At the Chiostri di San Barnaba, the Renaissance venue became a temple for a collective ritual celebrating the greatness of international creativity, leaving the audience in tears and critics speechless. Opening the evening, the words of Gentiana Dervishi, the soul of the event, moved everyone: “What we experienced was far more than a fashion show: it was a spiritual journey. Every designer gave us a piece of their soul, transforming fabric into pure emotion.

From the Albanian Design Academy came equally powerful interpretations, rich in identity: Ezgi Özalan enchanted the audience with creations that seemed like layered souls, strength and fragility fused in a mysterious balance, each garment a poetic enigma transforming fabric into emotion; Klarisa Vulaj surprised with graphic lines and contrasts that redefined spatial perception, creating dynamic architectures and new perspectives, a manifesto of audacity leaving an indelible mark; Denisa Pace captivated with a hybrid and visionary language, a hypnotic mosaic of textures and materials shifting with every glance, turning the runway into a vibrant, elusive kaleidoscope. From the East, Sora Watanabe orchestrated the success of her collection with a highly specialized team of tailors, photographers, videographers, and choreographers, each essential to the extraordinary outcome of GX Fashion Week. Sora transformed traditional Japanese kimonos into elegant dresses without cutting or damaging the fabric, highlighting the harmony between Japanese tradition and contemporary fashion. Preserving the original form and spirit of the kimono, she created innovative designs celebrating both cultural heritage and the individuality of each wearer. Her concept, known as the “Kimono Dress,” received praise for its respectful approach to tradition and contemporary appeal. Immediately following, Nina Tsiklauri, a Georgian with an Italian soul, conquered the stage with her brand Unique Milano, presenting jewel-like creations that masterfully fused the purity of Italian sartorial tradition with a bold and sophisticated contemporary language, transforming each piece into a masterpiece of elegance and poetry, establishing herself as one of the most refined and visionary names of the entire event.
