The organizer of this event is BigBag PR Agency, which is a boutique strategic communications firm specializes in fashion and beauty. Based on industry experiences – with a background in fashion journalism – the agency develop programs that launch, grow, or re-establish brand's presence and deliver consistent brand message. The agency's aim is to reinvigorate the professional Hungarian fashion life, that is why the organizers created TONI&GUY Fashion Week Budapest.[3]
Budapest Fashion Week is not limited to Hungarian designers alone. Labels from other central European countries including Poland, Czech Republic, Romania, and Ukraine are also featured. These designers are working to change the way Budapest fashion is perceived by incorporating unique color palettes, fabrics, and silhouettes.
Sandra Sandor has reached a higher popularity status than most other designers featured in Budapest Fashion Week. Sandor developed her brand named Nanushka in 2005, immediately after graduating from the London College of Fashion. Sandor is known for her knit sweaters, satin dresses with tie-waist details, striped linen pants, vegan leather puffers and belt bags. For each collection she chooses a clashing culture theme. For example, her Spring 2018 collection represents a mix of “far Eastern culture and wild Western Americana” .[4]
Nanushka's bold pieces made from luxurious fabrics and sold at a contemporary price point set this brand aside from most. It has gained global recognition, now being sold to Net-a-Porter, MyTheresa, Nordstrom, and Moda Operandi. World-famous fashion models Gigi Hadid and Caroline de Maigret have been caught wearing staple Nanushka pieces. This brand has been featured twice in New York Fashion Week and there are plans to open stores in New York and LA in the coming years. Through Sandor's hard work and increased popularity, she is helping to establish Budapest as the latest fashion hub.[5]
