080 Barcelona Fashion was conceived on July 2007 as a platform from which to offer visibility to independent fashion designers, with the aim to become a benchmark for international avant-garde fashion and design. Creativity and innovation are the concepts inspiring 080 Barcelona Fashion always keeping in mind the importance of marketing our products and the need to provide fashion with a commercial outlet.
080 Barcelona Fashion is enclosed as part of the Action Plan for Catalonia's Fashion, promoted by the Departament d'Innovació, Universitats i Empresa (Business and University Innovation Department) of the Generalitat de Catalunya. This Action Plan was designed with the idea of boosting the Textile Industry creating synergies among those fashion designers actually working in Catalonia, whilst giving an adequate answer to the independent designers' difficulties to launch and commercialise their own collections in either national or international markets. With the intention to earn its own place inside the independent fashion circuit, this event aims to transform the city of Barcelona into an inescapable first rate worldwide showcase for fashion and avant-garde design.
