twofold. First, we’re bringing internationally known fashion
designers from five diverse countries to San Francisco
in a way never before attempted. Second, we are providing an International-American
flavor for designer's to exchange, display and celebrate global
creativity through fashion. No better place to fuse the two markets,
than the multicultural city that breathes International art, fashion,
food and people than San Francisco, California."
