Fashion design and industry events are expanding across the Adriatic region, specifically in Croatia and Montenegro.

Individual designers have begun launching new collections for international and local audiences. Zagreb-based label MIAMIA introduced its ‘Reflections’ collection, while Montenegro-born designer Radojka Tepavac prepared to debut the ‘Imperial Adriatic’ collection at New York Fashion Week and Montenegro Fashion Week.

Simultaneously, regional fashion events are gaining prominence. In Croatia, the 18th edition of the Rijeka Stairs is scheduled to host 18 fashion shows featuring various designers and a focus on sustainable fashion. In Montenegro, the second annual Fashion Bang event is set to take place in Kotor, aiming to revitalize fashion presence in the Old Town through several designer collections and a showroom.
