Cnmi-Camera Nazionale della Moda Italiana inaugurated the Fashion Hub, the project aiming to promote international talents. For the opening, the brand Raree show has been awarded the Camera buyer Italia-The Best shops award. The designer could access mentoring lessons with an Italian luxury boutique multi-brand receiving advice to strengthen the brand identity.
The Fashion Hub hosts several projects dedicated to creating encounters between emerging designers and buyers and based on the values of sustainability.

Designers for the Planet
The fifth edition of the project is devoted to the emerging Italian brands which have made sustainability a fundamental component of the production of their collections. The brands presented are: Bennu, Acidalatte, DassùYAmoroso, Vernisse and Raree Show.

Designers for Ethical Fashion
The first edition of the Designers for Ethical Fashion, devoted to the topic of ethical and social fashion, has the aim of giving visibility to the brands that through creating clothes and accessories provide support for people who are in disadvantaged situations, such as women who are victims of violence, immigrants and refugees. The brands present are: Sep, Ara Lumiere, and Cartiera.

Sep involved over 500 embroidery artists in the refugee camp of Jerash in Jordan, and aims to put thousands of refugee women above the poverty line.
Ara Lumiere, which presents a ready-to-wear collection for the first time, involves in its production women who have undergone acid attacks using 100% of the profits to support medical care and to help them fit back into society.
Cartiera is a brand that trains and hires refugees and asylum-seekers, by offering them the chance to have qualified roles.

Budapest Select
The project, the result of the collaboration between the Hungarian Fashion & Design Agency, aims to give international visibility, prominence, and acclaim to Hungarian designers. This season seven Hungarian brands launch their collections on the road of foreign expansion: Abodi, Cukovy, Elysian, Kata Szegedi, Nini, Thefour, Zsigmond.
