ANTALYA, TÜRKİYE | 4–8 NOVEMBER 2026
Fashion acquires a different dimension when presented against the architecture of ancient civilizations. 
In Antalya, the International Fashion Ball 2026 & International Business Forum will bring international creative talent into dialogue with the region’s cultural heritage, combining runway presentations, artistic performances and professional encounters from 4 to 8 November 2026.
The event’s programme will unite designers from different countries, including Danna Karimova, Vedrana Milanovich, Asel Kids, Lyubov Pirogova, Any Amo, Oktay Seven, Minardi and Hakan Yryeşil. The planned cultural programme includes visits to Perge and Side, two ancient cities that provide a powerful historical context for contemporary artistic expression. Organisers have also highlighted Perge as a potential setting for the runway showcase, with final venue arrangements requiring confirmation.
The opening presentation will feature Giuseppe Fata, an Italian maestro internationally recognised for his sculptural headpieces. His work moves beyond conventional hair design, creating three-dimensional forms inspired by classical art, Baroque architecture and the visual traditions of Italy. His philosophy treats the head as a sculptural canvas, bringing together craftsmanship, theatricality and avant-garde fashion.
