young designers participate in the contest. Their collections consist
of 5 women’s and men’s models. The winners will qualify for
representing Armenia in the regional semifinal, which is scheduled for
8 September 2007 in Yerevan. According to her, the designers have the
opportunity to present their works on stage free of charge, because the
organizing committee and the sponsor of the event cover all the
financial costs. For his part, the head of sports and youth department
of Yerevan City Hall, Kamo Movsesyan, emphasized that this contest also
has an informative character, as in Armenia there are a lot of gifted
young people in this field. He added that they are known practically in
all the CIS countries, however, for some reason there are not known in
Armenia yet.

information partner is the Public Television of Armenia. The event is
organized by the ATEX Fashion Center CJSC, the representative of the
`Russian Silhouette’ Charity Fund in Armenia, and the `House of Moscow’
in Yerevan. The key goal of the contest is to form culture of dress
design, to unlock the creativity of Armenian stylists and
determine the Armenian professional styling school. To note, the
International contest of young designers was initiated by the `Russian
Silhouette’ Charity Fund in 1999 and it is held in 150 CIS and Baltic
