Buenos Aires - After its August 2021 edition, Costa Rica
Fashion Week (CRFW) announced that it will hold a Resort edition, with a focus
on summer garments and swimwear, during next December in the province of
Guanacaste.
From the organization they pointed out that the event arises
from the need to boost the economy of the region, promoting different sectors
such as fashion, gastronomy and tourism. In addition, it will seek to make
visible the work of artisans to give them the opportunity to market with
different audiences.
“We continue in the search to promote the Costa Rican
fashion industry, generating spaces for all associates and interested in the
textile industry. This time we want to provide opportunities to all designers
focused on swimwear and summer garments, including accessories. In addition, we
take into consideration other industries that have suffered due to the current
situation, such as the hotel industry and artisans in the region ”says Karina
Díaz, director of CRFW.
For this event there is already a campaign that shows the
union of a modern oasis with a natural one, where diversity coexists in various
aspects, from people and spaces to nationally produced clothing. “The campaign
seeks to demonstrate that union between current life, without neglecting the
natural essence that surrounds us. We wanted to take advantage of the
architectural beauty of different spaces, always having as the protagonist the
exuberance of nature, which is a fundamental part of what it represents us.
" said the creative directors of the campaign.
The Resort edition of Costa Rica Fashion Week will be held
at the W Costa Rica hotel, Reserva Conchal and the catwalks will be broadcast
to the public through the official digital channels of the platform.
Mango joins the fight against breast cancer with a
solidarity collection
Coinciding with the start of Breast Cancer Awareness Month,
which takes place every October, and with the celebration of the next
International Day Against Breast Cancer, an awareness day that takes place
every October 19 month, the fashion firm Mango once again joins the cause by
launching a solidarity collection to benefit the Fero Foundation. Spanish
private institution dedicated to promoting cancer research, founded in 2001 by
Dr. Josep Baselga and currently chaired by businesswoman Sol Daurella.
Now available both in a selection of physical establishments
selected from about twenty markets such as Spain, France, or Italy, as well as
through the chain's online store, the collection is made up of a women's line
made up of three different models of T-shirts (15.99 euros), two bags and a
toiletry bag, and a men's line, in this case consisting of only two models of
T-shirts. All of them illustrated with different messages of
"strength", such as "Hope", "Do it",
"Love", "Stronger together" or "Join the fight",
whose profits will be donated entirely to the Fero Foundation, thus following
previous initiatives such as the one undertaken last year, and with which Mango
managed to raise more than 175,000 euros for the benefit of the organization.
"The collaboration between Mango and the Fero
Foundation dates back to 2008, when the sisters Penélope and Mónica Cruz,
together with the fashion firm, designed a t-shirt to cooperate in the fight
against Breast Cancer", Mango explains through a statement. Already “in
2010 and 2011, Mango commercialized a t-shirt designed by Jordi Labanda in
collaboration with the Foundation”, and “since 2017, both entities collaborate
with the launch of an annual collection to raise funds for Breast Cancer
research” . Throughout this time, this association, among other actions,
"has created the call for a Fero-Mango Grant on breast cancer, which
promotes the career of young researchers in this field", and that
"this year will launch its third edition ”. One last call,
