We would like to invite you to the 3rd LUBLIN POP-UP SHOP fashion and design fair, which will be held December 7, 2013 at the newly refurbished premises of the Centre for Culture in Lublin. The winter edition of LUBLIN POP-UP SHOP will provide an opportunity to purchase original seasonal gifts for family and friends. Besides the fair, the programme includes shows, exhibitions and meetings. The call for applications for the 3rd LUBLIN POP-UP SHOP is now open, so we invite designers to take part in the fashion and design fair in Lublin. All information on how to apply can be found on our website at www.lublinpopupshop.pl/dla-wystawcow. The previous editions of LUBLIN POP-UP SHOP were very popular with both residents of Lublin and the mass media. We hosted artists from Lublin and all over Poland. The collections presented at the fashion shows included one by established brand Herzlich Willkommen, a regular participant in the Fashion Week Poland, and a colelction by young Greek designer Konstantina Konstantinidi. LUBLIN POP-UP SHOP has put Lublin on the map of fashion-design events held in Poland, thus becoming a potential market for designers. IDEA We can observe a growing interest in fashion and design in our city, particularly in works by young Polish designers. For this reason, we have created an opportunity for both independent artists and established brands to present and sell their products here. We promote designers, university graduates and talented individuals who combine creativity and innovation in design. We focus on handicraft, design and new technologies. By selecting designers, we support creativity and originality. We look for unique patterns, interesting ideas, products made of high quality materials, with attention to finishing details. LUBLIN POP-UP SHOP is also aimed at promoting design in the broadest sense of the word, from industrial design to commercial design. We try to present products that are distinctive in their originality, manufacturing quality and functionality. Our task is to make others realize that creative design is an investment that brings profits in any business. Apart from local designers, we also invite designers from Lublin who are active somewhere else as well as artists from other cities. It is important to present the potential of Lublin in the field of design and to juxtapose it with what is created outside Lublin, both in Poland and abroad. LUBLIN POP-UP SHOP is also an opportunity to meet people with passion who value originality and remarkable character.
