One of Colombia’s most important fashion events, “Circulo de la Moda,” will commence in Bogota next week to showcase the latest autumn-winter trends.

The 12th edition of Circulo de la Moda will take place in the Colombian capital’s Parque de la 93 from May 7 to 9, and will showcase new collections from well-known brands and established designers.

Young, up and coming designers will also get the chance to show off their work, including a number of students from the University of the Andes and the School of Design and Fashion Marketing, who will have their designs worn by models on the runway.

In total there will be 24 catwalk shows. On Tuesday May 7 the show kicks off at 7PM, and features five 45-minute runway displays. The catwalks start earlier on Wednesday at 3PM and on Thursday at 1PM to allow fashion students to exhibit their designs earlier in the day.

The Colombian brand, TENNIS, will display its new collection at 7.45PM on the final day of the exhibition. The brand’s new line is “characterized by dark tones” and features synthetic, leather-look fabrics. They claim the new look is ideal for giving “a sophisticated edge to a grungy look.”

Other brands and designers set to put on runway shows include TUL, ALDEA, Juan, Natalia Londono and Kika Vargas.
