Sofia applauds Maria Kamisheva Couture
On April 29, our capital turned into a scene of exquisite fashion experience. The exclusive fashion show of the Bulgarian designer brand Maria Kamisheva Couture, organized by the International Fashion Connection Group /IFC Group/ with president Mila Zaharieva, took place in the elegant art setting of the Anel Hotel.
The event brought together representatives of the fashion, lifestyle and business circles, as well as presented Bulgarian designer fashion in a contemporary, artistic and high-impact format.
At the centre of the evening was the Portrait of Identity collection – a selection of handcrafted looks that combine classic silhouettes, precise detailing and distinctive artistic signature.
Each look carries a sense of individuality, elegance and strong presence – a signature of designer Maria Kamisheva.
The evening built on the classic revue with additional artistic highlights. A special moment was the fashion show with original statuettes by sculptor Zhivko Sedlarski, presented by the young models of IFC Models Academy – part of a social initiative to support young talents in fashion design at IFC Academy, a project of IFC Group.
Through the opportunity to purchase the artworks, guests actively participated in the cause of developing the future generation of artists.
The culmination of the event was Maria Kamisheva Couture’s fashion show, followed by an interactive live styling performance – a rare and impactful format in which the designer presented the process of creating a look in real time, together with stylist Stoyan Danchev.
The finale evolved into an after show experience in the IFC Multibrand Store space, where guests had the opportunity for personal contact with the designer, individual consultations and model selection – turning the event into not only an aesthetic, but also a personal fashion experience.
The host of the evening was Ipek Bulentova, who with her elegant presence and professionalism contributed to the overall atmosphere of the event. The make-up artist Ivet Dimitrova took care of the models’ make-up, contributing to the complete and sophisticated look of each presented look.
The video recording of the event was done by Videotours, who captured the key moments and the atmosphere of the evening.
With its concept and implementation, the event established the IFC Multibrand Store as a key platform for the presentation and development of Bulgarian designer brands in a contemporary context.
The International Fashion Connection Group continues to build a sustainable bridge between fashion, art and culture, creating an environment where talent is not just showcased – but developed, supported and established internationally.
