Flickstree Asian Designer Week (FADW) was held in Delhi NCR, October 4 to 6, 2019.

The event combined fashion with business. It provided a comprehensive platform for creativity and business in the world of fashion as it hosted more than 40 designers who presented their collections on the ramp. Five buyers as panelists discussed the opportunities in the retail/export business. The discussion opened up avenues of exports for Indian designers who have been hitherto limited to their clientele. The panel had social media influencers who debated about the pressure of communication through the social media and the role it plays in today's fashion business. Influencers were also part of the ramp show that followed the panel discussion.

Fashion start-ups that had come up with pitches for angel investors included 6 Degree (a fashion tech start-up), The Knotty Tales (a tech enabled wedding platform), DROR (a women’s safety app), and Eunimart (a cross border trading enabling platform for medium and small enterprises). They made impressive presentations for their business and sought a second round of funding from the 100-odd investors present in the audience.

Apart from the runway shows, FADW provided a B2B exhibition space for designers to showcase their work and engage with potential buyers.
