“The Galata Moda Festival is an opportunity for designers to portray their own brand names. Everyone from top world-famous designers to students of fashion design will be at this festival. It will have a real work-shop atmosphere,” said Korçan, president of the Fashion Designers Association.
Designers will set up stands around the historical Galata Tower, where fashion lovers will be able to purchase designer articles ranging from 50-400 YTL in price.
At a press conference, Beyoğlu Mayor Ahmet Misbah Demircan said the festival would become an annual tradition. The municipality wants to turn Galata into a fashion quarter without disturbing its historical atmosphere, Demircan said.
