From Europe to Australia: Professionals from abroad are heading to MBPFW
Elsa Poncet, Melania Freire, Martina Špetlová or the professional team of Kevin Murphy - these are the special guests that will liven up the upcoming Mercedes-Benz Prague Fashion Week this year. Come have a bit of a closer look at this exclusive delegation with us!
Elsa Poncet: An intellectual businesswoman in the beauty world
Let's start with a lady, one very important in the world of luxury fashion. Having graduated one of the most demanding high schools in Paris, Lycée Louis le Grand, and a prestigious university ESSEC Business School, she started her career with the French brand Sonia Rykiel. She continued with Christian Lacroix, Balmain and AZZARO Paris.
For the past 9 years she's been working for the designer Vanessa Bruno, where she mostly acts as a product quality supervisor.
Melania Freire: A designer whom you may be wearing without even knowing about it
The name of this young Spaniard may have only been appearing in the fashion world for a rather short time, but Melania Freire has already racked up a number of successes. She won the last edition of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Talent Award for young designers at the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in Madrid, and got the post of a fashion designer for a popular brand ZARA WOMAN BASIC. That's why a piece by this designer may be hanging in your closet and you may have no idea.
Kevin Murphy: The hair guru celebrating 10 years in Prague
Kevin Murphy's team will be taking care of styling the hair of the models for the 10th time! The hairstyles will once again be created by SESSION.MASTERl the owner of the studio s t o l e n Craig Hughan and the prominent Czech hairstylist Robert Starý. In his salon he's been working with this exact prominent Australian brand of hair products for five years now. So when you see the hot new trends for the FW19 season on the catwalk, you'll know who's behind them.
Martina Špetlová: A designer with an emphasis on zero waste
Last but not least, joining the MBPFW lineup will be a Czech native Martina Špetlová, who has been working in the British fashion scene for a long time. After finishing her studies at the London Central Saint Martins school she founded her own brand, which has gained success all over the world! In her luxurious creations she focuses on zero waste and sustainability, which may very well be the reason why her collections sell so well in New York, Los Angeles, Dubai or Hong Kong.
