This afternoon from 18 hours, Casa America and the Embassy of Bolivia present in the halls Bolivar and Ambassadors of the diplomatic cultural center the Bolivian Fashion Europe 2025. Haute couture fashion.
Haute couture fashion and design in Bolivia is distinguished by a harmonious combination of the ancestral and the contemporary, giving life to a unique cultural legacy that manifests itself through its textiles. This aesthetic proposal incorporates traditional elements such as original fabrics, intense tones and patterns inspired by the Andean crafts, highlighting the cultural diversity of the country. At the same time, haute couture is characterized by its refined design, the use of high-quality materials and meticulous workmanship, focused on exclusivity and distinction.
The show will show this duality between traditional and modern through three original collections that celebrate the Bolivian cultural heritage and its projection to the world. Each proposal recognizes and enhances our roots, elevating the indigenous and popular identity, while establishing a dialogue with contemporary art and fashion, positioning Bolivia on the international scene. These stylistic proposals converge into unique pieces that intertwine the cultural richness of the country with the sophistication of haute couture, giving rise to collections that not only stand out for their aesthetic beauty but also for the deep cultural and symbolic message they embody, reflecting the soul of an entire nation.
During this fashion show you will be able to appreciate pieces from the collection of different artists and designers who put in value this rich mix of tradition, folklore and innovation. The works of Franz Auza, Felipe Zambrana and Marianela Otondo will be shown.
Welcome words from León de la Torre, general director of Casa de América; Víctor Rafael Arancibia Gutiérrez, chargé d’affaires a.i., and Hugo Bustillos García, director of the ACOBE Foundation.
