Fashion events take place in the different parts of the world and many international cities have them every year. They feature runway shows and trade shows that showcase the latest collections of local and international fashion designers as well as new and veteran models.

But not every event gets wide coverage. There are the major ones that stand out, draw huge crowds and get more media exposure whether in broadcast, print or online.

It features the collections of notable designers such as Louis Vuitton, Balenciaga, Stella McCartney, Issey Miyake, Miu Miu, Givenchy, Emanuel Ungaro and Valentino among others.

Haute Couture Fashion Week

The Haute Couture Week is always a huge hit because of its creativity and the inspiration it provides. Taking place in Paris, it features a select group of fashion designers who work together with some of the best crafters in Paris to create unique and affordable outfits.

Some members of the elite club of designers featured in this event include Chanel, Christian Dios SA, Jean Paul Gaultier and Maison Martin Margiela.
