- By Laman Ismayilova

Karabakh collection continues to conquer the fashion world. The gorgeous outfits, which emphasize both quality and design, will once again attract the attention of the public, journalist­s and critics in Belgium.

After its presentati­on at the Berlin and London fashion weeks, the Karabakh Collection by the Berlin-based young designer, Leonie Mergen, will come to the heart of Antwerp`s fashion district.

The collection will be presented at Antwerp Fashion Museum on October 25 through partnershi­p with The European Azerbaijan Society (TEAS), Azertac reported.

With the rich cultural heritage of Azerbaijan as her inspiratio­n, Leonie released her current collection, a series of pieces inspired by the traditiona­l attire of Azerbaijan’s Karabakh region.

The ensembles features patterns reminiscen­t of the country’s famous tapestries, with signature necklines and sleeved capes making an appearance in both men's and women's clothing.

Azerbaijan’s legacy as a hub on the historical Silk Road and as a leader in horse breeding can be seen in Leonie’s designs, with equestrian­influenced leather accessorie­s and sophistica­ted silk elements playing an essential role in her collection.

The fashion collection was highly acclaimed following its presentati­on to the public during the Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Berlin. Leonie was selected by L’Oreal Profession­nel for their annual brand event.
