Exclusive: BFFI x Farfetch initiative

Mid-Fashion Week and the place to be was at the Buro Fashion Forward Initiative, which was held in conjunction with Farfetch. Inside the Salon Vendome, the Ritz, Paris, a VIP guest list mingled amongst a collection of emerging designers from countries including Russia and the Ukraine. The BFFI platform is designed to launch regional ones-to-watch onto a global platform.

This year's edition, which ran under the theme of 'Soviet Constructivism', saw designs from Olga Vilshenko, Julia Kalmanovich, Outlaw Moscow, Gola Damian and Djaba Diassamidze. Under the tutelage of Candice Fragis, Farfetch's Buying & Merchandising Director, the designers presented their main collections to an A-list guest list including Kim and Kourtney Kardashian, Courtney Love and Toni Gaarn.
