Indonesia Fashion Week is the first fashion event which combines fashion shows and trade show. This event is not just showcasing latest designers with extravagant fashion shows but also providing a complete fashion exhibition (ranging from Women’s wear (Muslim, Casual, Cocktail & Party), men’s wear & kids wear, Accessories and Textile), seminars and competitions. All of these have one aim that is to accelerate the growth of local fashion Industry. This event unites all important elements of fashion from designers, academic institutions, business, association to government.

Indonesia Fashion Week 2013 will be held on 14-17 February 2013 at Jakarta Convention Center, Jakarta.

This 2013 event will have new zones;

1. Concept Point

Artists, creative people can display their original work in this zone. This is the zone of creativity where the creator can sell their ideas to buyers who want to adopt the ideas into mass productions. This is a “buyer only” area and prohibited to public.

2. Starting Point

This zone is made for the exhibitor who has complete brand concept from women’s wear, men’s wear, accessories to shoes in one brand. Their brands are ready for export.

3. Green Point

Fashion industry has grown so fast and contributes to world pollution (because of the production waste). Green Zone will display eco-friendly products with innovative designs made by designers/artists.

All zones will accommodate the needs of fashion designers/entrepreneurs; from fresh graduated college students, amateur fashion entrepreneur, young promising designers to established senior designers. There will be 442 booths available and 168 designers and 585 brands participating in this event.

If in Indonesia Fashion Week 2012 the stage is divided into 2 stage; Assembly and Plenary, now all shows will be held in the Plenary stage. This means the designers will have bigger benefit; bigger stage and audience capacity. The other benefit is Indonesia Fashion Week will start to invite foreign fashion buyers so that the participant will have the chance to expand their business better.

How about ticketing ?? don't worry guys, i guess it's around 10.000 - 20.000 rupiah or 1- 2$ because last year in Indonesia Fashion Week ,visitors must paid entrance 10.000 rupiahs, really cheap right?
