A special place among them will be occupied by the participants of the special project Designerpool.
The organizers of the exhibition CPM have established a special project Designerpool in order to support young talents from among fashion designers in Russia. In front of the permanent curator of the project and authoritative fashion expert Galina Istomina The task has always been not only to find a fresh and interesting design, but also to determine its commercial potential. It is thanks to Galina's professional flair that for more than 10 years of the project's existence, those who today stand for unconditional success in business took part in it. Among such names are irill Gasilin, Erika Zayonts, Jemal Mahmudov, Dasha Gauzer, Asya Kogel and many others.
According to the terms of the project, each participant is given the opportunity to show their collections for two consecutive seasons not only at the stand in the pavilion CPM Premium, but also on the podium as part of the collective daily show CPM Designerpool. For many designers, the experience combining a business presentation and a professional catwalk show is unprecedented and becomes a real springboard for a career.
