“Despite all the current restrictions and obstacles found on their way, the organizers of Fashionclash stuck to their mission: promote, empower and highlight the work of innovative designers and artists, offering them a unique platform to be themselves, showcase their talents and act freely.” – Philippe Pourhashemi, Fucking Young!
