Last but not the least was our maiden fashion event at the 3rd Denimsandjeans event- FASHIONIM. This was the first time a fashion show was organized at one of our shows . Special thanks go to our sponsoring partners – Vicunha Textil (Brazil), Arvind (India) and Hameem Denim (Bangladesh) for providing us the support to enable us bring out this much appreciated event at our show.

The one hour show brought out latest western and eastern fashion elements in denim to the denim lovers who were present at the show . The presence of denim stalwarts like Adriano Goldschmied, Piero Turk and others helped the event become more special .
