Kiel can catwalk

This year, the city centre will once again attract fashion fans and fashionistas to the catwalk. In the centre of Asmus-Bremer-Platz, Kiel-Marketing and FAEX from Berlin present several shows by local fashion companies as well as international designers from the slow fashion sector.

Review 2024

With the fashion show, the neighbourhood around Asmus underlined its strengths in terms of fashion expertise and sustainability. The other neighbourhoods also presented their fashion and lifestyle gems. From 1 p.m. to 7 p.m., there was a colourful programme for the whole family around the shows.

Co-organiser FAEX has been successfully organising similar events in cities such as Bremen and Freiburg since 2019. In Freiburg, 140 local tradespeople recently took part in the Fashion Days there.

Before the first fashion show, there was join-in music for children with Liederlukas. Hosted by fashion journalist and stylist Luisa Verfürth, the models from Kiel and the surrounding area wowed the audience with beautiful creations from various local labels, from second-hand to customised garments. In between, the Grenke dance school and SportTempel Kiel created a great atmosphere and then it was back to the catwalk. The fashion show was rounded off with wedding dresses from Braut trifft Kleid and a short musical finale with Liza & Schleicher.
