The event has created a platform to display domestic design and production capacities, learn about new market trends, and strengthen connections among producers, designers, suppliers, and apparel sector actors.

Holding the two events simultaneously allows for greater interaction among different parts of the production chain, from raw material supply and fabric production to design, sewing, and delivery of the final product.
