Description

The Macedonian Fashion Formation (MMF) is the first association of Macedonian fashion designers and other professionals involved in the field of fashion. Since its establishment in 2005, the MMF continuously initiates projects for connecting fashion designers with textile companies and organizes fashion shows and fashion events according to new established criteria with the aim to reanimate the local fashion scene.
The MMF Fashion and Design Cluster was established within the association in 2007 with the aim to initiate and join projects which treat the promotion of fashion design in the country as well as abroad. In 2008 the MMF became a partner of the project "Promotion of export of custom collections in the textile industry by way of qualification and regional networking of fashion designers”, which is supported by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development of Germany through Open Regional Fund (ORF) for promotion of foreign trade for Southeast Europe. The MMF was the creator of the regional web portal for fashion design associations www.see-fashionfusion.com. In 2009 with the ORF’s support, MMF organized 2-days Regional Forum of fashion
designers, clothing industry and vocational colleges of Southeast Europe named “Development of Fashion Brands”.
The MMF’s project activities were supported by Ministry of Economy of RM, Ministry of Culture of RM, Local Government, City of Skopje, local Fashion and Design Universities and business subjects.
