From Nov. 9 to 10, the Vogue Fashion Festival will take place at the Palais Potocki.
For the third edition of the event, the theme is “Fashion and its new frontiers.” These frontiers and borders include the split between digital and print, gender divides, geographic lines and generational differences.
Speakers will include LVMH fashion group chairman and CEO Sidney Toledano, Coty CEO Edgar Huber and Maria Grazia Chiuri, the creative director of Dior.
In addition to keynotes the festival will include materclasses and roundtables on topics such as launching luxury startups, fashion journalism and social media strategies.
