What is Fashion Tourism?

THe Rise of Fashion tourism

International cities are increasingly using the cultural industries for the development of tourism and other industries to boost their economic fortune and to position themselves in the global market. There is often no need for cities to specialize in any new activity but rather to diversify their economy and it is in this context that fashion tourism has been adopted and promoted in cities such as Antwerp, London and Tokyo.

The modern tourist is no longer only attracted by the sands and seas of the typical tourism packages.

History of fashion week

One of history's first signs of a fashion week, or seasonal collection, can be traced back to fashion designer Charles Frederick Worth. The concept of fashion week began in Paris, when marketers used to hire women to wear couture items in public places, from racetracks to beauty salons.
