The 080 Barcelona Fashion was created in 2007 with the aim of giving visibility and promoting the brands of independent designers at a Spanish level. A plan to reactivate the textile sector promoted by the Department of Innovation, Universities and Business. The creation of this event has made it possible to market and publicize new designers, brands and collections, both nationally and internationally, through the catwalk.
Every year they are held in Barcelona two editions of 080 Barcelona Fashion, one focused on fashion and winter collections during the dates of late January and early February, and another for summer fashion, at the end of June.
The next edition of this year 2018 will be the winter one and like the last edition, it will take place in the modernist grounds of the Sant Pau Hospital, a unique space in the city of Barcelona, from January 29 to February 2. A total of 32 national brands will parade with the aim of highlighting the tradition of the Catalan textile industry and the prestige of Catalonia, highlighting its capital, Barcelona, for being the center where fashion and design meet.
In this edition we will again be able to enjoy the intimate fashion for women and men with Punto Blanco, specifically on Wednesday 31 January at 12:30. A very special collection, with attention to detail that will surely not leave the public indifferent.
From Punto Blanco we wanted to highlight the importance of taking care of the environment, mixing concepts such as the sky, water and land.
By 2020 two thirds of the planet's wildlife will have disappeared. As living beings and citizens, we must stop this tragedy by appreciating and caring for our environment with great tact and love. This problem, and the passion with which we try to find a solution, have inspired this collection and its designs where the urban environment is combined with nature, through common elements such as sky, water and earth. All this with high quality materials, very good finishes and recycled fabrics.
In the pieces we will also be able to see messages dedicated to raising society's awareness of this serious problem, creating a trend while implanting a positive message .
