\nLast March 30, the Singapore Tourism Board hosted a luncheon to shed light on Asia Fashion Exchange. AFX is a weeklong holistic platform that brings together four key fashion events that supports vital sectors of development in the fashion industry – Audi Fashion Festival (consumer), Blueprint (trade), Audi Star Creation (talent development), and Asia Fashion Summit (business conferencing). Now on it’s third year, AFX is set to deliver even more value to its participants with a stellar line-up of events including a runway show of one of my favorite lines – Erdem. \ud83d\ude42 <\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nSo here’s a quick rundown on the 4 events- the Audi Fashion Festival is basically the runway shows part of AFX. Blueprint is a trade show of emerging designer brands wherein buyers from all over the world can harness young Asian talent. This Eastern fashion curiosity, according to Singapore Tourism Board Area Director for the Philippines and Brunei Ms. Sherina Chan, stemmed from Asian designers like Alexander Wang, Phillip Lim, and even our own Monique Lhuillier. This year, 2 Filipino lines are part of this – Wanderlust and Noelle Llave (who is just beyond awesome and talented, not just coz she’s my friend!). Audi Star Creation is a design competition, and the Asia Fashion Summit is a two-day conference featuring over 30 speakers and panellists.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nAFX will take place on May 14-20, 2012 – hope I can go! \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n
