The year 2020 is entirely digital, and Venice Fashion Week Digital presents fashion, creativity, and craftsmanship in Venice.
Venice Fashion Week’s Christmas gift to its online audience is a holiday edition to be enjoyed throughout the festivities. On Thursday, December 24, connect with us on Instagram: on December 24, 25, and 26 we will present online fashion shows, events, and appointments featuring fashion and craftsmanship in Venice.
Venice Fashion Week is committed to ensuring that Venice prospers. This World Heritage city, entirely built by artisans over the centuries and a cradle of creativity and style since Byzantine times, is a city on a human scale between nature and culture, art and technology.
The creativity and talent of Venetians are rooted in nearly two thousand years of history. Venetian Fashion Week is a contribution to remind the city and the world that at the origin of such beauty lie millennia of artisanal excellence, art, culture, and international openness.
Every day, those of us who live in Venice see a city that is alive, active, and productive: we want to share with you the value of craftsmanship, contemporary design, and young designers, and lead you to discover the city’s precious and priceless creative heritage.
Season’s greetings and a wonderful 2021 to our partners, young talents, and all those who believe in Venice.
