4 5 Introduction Berlin Showroom, like the city itself, embodies a spirit of relentless growth and constant evolution. This season, we are delighted to present a new addition to our repertoire of exhibitions in Paris our first ever men s wear showroom. As with previous editions, our mission is to showcase inspiring and innovative ideas that influence the season s fashion discourse on an international scale. We invite you to explore the diverse Autumn / Winter 2014-15 collections from Berlin s nine finest men s wear designers, grown and groomed in the German capital and brought to you in the heart of Paris. These are their well crafted worlds and we couldn t imagine a better start than this nor a more stimulating place than here to start off the exciting new year. Berlin Showroom is an initiative and part of the strategy of Projekt Zukunft / Senate for Economics, Technology and Research in Berlin. The joint presentation is co-financed by the Foreign Trade Support Programme and the European Regional Development Fund. Berlin Showroom is realised by IDZ Designpartner Berlin GmbH in cooperation with Arne Eberle press+sales and Initiative Projekt Zunkunft.
