FASHION VIBES MILANO PRESENTS

“NEXT CHAPTER”

AT MILAN FASHION WEEK WOMEN’S

Fashion, Art and New International Visions

Milan, September 25, 2026 — Fashion as a language. Fashion as identity. Fashion as transformation.

From this vision comes NEXT CHAPTER, the new edition of Fashion Vibes Milano, conceived, directed and produced by Yuliia Palchykova, Founder & Art Director of Fashion Vibes Milano.

Presented on September 24 during Milan Fashion Week Women’s, the event showcased the Spring/Summer 2027 collections of ISFERRA, ROVEL, HELENA D’OR and Atelier Mila Gross, bringing together four distinctive creative perspectives from different corners of the world.

Set within the elegant surroundings of the Centro Congressi Fondazione Cariplo, Via Romagnosi 8, in the heart of Milan, the event brought together designers, artists, fashion industry professionals, media, content creators and international guests for a day dedicated to fashion, art and the dialogue between different creative languages.

Alongside the runway presentations, Runway, Art Gallery & Showroom offered a complementary format centred around accessories, beauty and networking. It created a shared space where talent, craftsmanship, cultures and new forms of expression could meet — connecting distant countries and creative communities through a common language: fashion, talent and craftsmanship.

NEXT CHAPTER: A NEW NARRATIVE

NEXT CHAPTER is rooted in the idea of evolution.

Every collection represents a passage, a transformation, a new page waiting to be written. At a moment when international fashion continues to redefine its vocabulary, Fashion Vibes Milano places creative identity and freedom of expression at the heart of its vision.

Under the artistic direction of Yuliia Palchykova, Fashion Vibes Milano continues to develop an international format that moves beyond the traditional fashion show, creating a meeting point between fashion, art, beauty, media and diverse cultures.

The runway becomes more than a stage for presenting collections. It becomes a space where every designer can communicate their story through their creations, expressing their identity, their creative language and their vision of the future.

FOUR VISIONS OF SPRING/SUMMER 2027

The runway opened with ISFERRA, from Dubai, presenting “Nova Era.”

Already in its title, the collection introduces the idea of a new beginning and a new energy, symbolically opening the narrative of NEXT CHAPTER.

From Australia, ROVEL presented “The Women Before Me,” a collection exploring femininity, memory and the profound connection with the women who came before us. Through a personal perspective, the collection brings the past into dialogue with contemporary expression.

From Brazil, HELENA D’OR presented “FASES,” a collection centred on transformation and the many dimensions of the feminine universe.

Closing the show, Atelier Mila Gross presented “Baroc - coraźon,” bringing the evening’s journey to its final chapter with a collection distinguished by a powerful expressive and theatrical character.

Four independent universes. Four distinctive creative identities.

Together, they offered a vision of Spring/Summer 2027 that is vibrant, luminous and international — a space where memory meets the future, femininity meets transformation, and research meets creative freedom.

BEHIND THE RUNWAY

The Beauty Direction was entrusted to Luciano Carino, who, together with his team of hairstylists and make-up artists, curated the preparation of the models and developed the distinctive beauty identities of the show.

Every beauty look contributed to the visual language of the collections, reinforcing the individual identity of each designer while becoming part of the wider narrative of NEXT CHAPTER.

MILAN AS A MEETING POINT

Hosted at the Centro Congressi Fondazione Cariplo, Via Romagnosi 8, in the heart of Milan, the project, conceived and organised for nine years by Yuliia Palchykova, once again brought together designers, artists, media partners, press, content creators and international guests.

The event became a meeting point for different creative languages, cultures and professional communities, creating an environment in which fashion could coexist naturally with art, beauty, media and international networking.

Following the runway presentations, the evening continued with a cocktail party and DJ set, offering a moment of celebration and recognition for the designers and their work, as well as for the guests and journalists who joined the event.

More than a presentation of new collections, NEXT CHAPTER created an opportunity for dialogue, connection and the development of new relationships within an international creative environment.

FROM MILAN TO AFRICA — BUILDING THE NEXT CHAPTER

The significance of events such as NEXT CHAPTER extends beyond the runway.

They reveal opportunities for professional exchange, cultural dialogue, visibility and collaboration between European creative industries and Africa.

For Mokili Mobimba Ruya, this is the essence of its editorial mission: to build bridges rather than boundaries.

African creativity is not outside the global fashion conversation. It is part of its evolution. European fashion is not a closed ecosystem. It is increasingly shaped by international exchange, cultural dialogue and new creative perspectives.

The future belongs to those who understand these connections.

AFRICAN MINDS observes where culture is going.
MOKILI MOBIMBA RUYA creates the bridge through which those ideas can travel.
