Responsible attitude and sustainable practices are becoming more urgent than ever. The countries of the Visegrad Group are taking part in the important change too, with a growing number of designers and companies putting efforts into reducing their negative ecological impact, and leading the trend to ethical and sustainable fashion.

The exhibition presents 24 sustainable fashion and design brands from the V4 Countries: Czechia, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia. They have dedicated their work to good design and to creating products in accordance with the ethos of sustainability: use natural materials, recycle or/and upcycle, search for eco-friendly and innovative alternatives, stick to local resources, commit to zero waste manufacturing, and focus on social impact.

The exhibition is organized by Liszt Institute - Hungarian Cultural Center on the occasion of the Hungarian Presidency of the Visegrad Group in 2021/22; with the partnership of Czech Centre Sofia; Polish Institute in Sofia and Embassy of Slovakia in Sofia.



Organised by the Liszt Institute - Hungarian Culture Center in Sofia.
