Your favorite fashion conference is back. Revamped and with new energy, we will now organise this event every year, in the first week of June, in Antwerp - the avant-garde capital of fashion.

We are also proud to announce our collaboration with our two content directors: fashion media tycoons Elodie Ouédraogo and Elspeth Jenkins. They are working hard on putting together a dynamic program filled with thought provoking talks and inspiring networking opportunities.

On June 5th we welcome our visitors to the red velvet seats of our new location, the Arenberg theater. You can secure your spot now by grabbing an early bird ticket - limited availability!

Former Olympic Gold medalist Elodie Ouédraogo is the Fashion Director for ELLE Belgium. Passionate about Belgian designers and with a degree in journalism, Elodie combines a job in TV with writing and fashion productions for the magazine.

In 2016 Elodie co-founded UNRUN, a Belgian sustainable activewear brand. Since then, the brand has gone on to collaborate with strong international brands like Delvaux and Samsung. Elodie has hosted many tv-shows and appeared in campaigns for brands like Y/Project, Wouters & Hendrix and Lancôme. In 2020 she was given the opportunity to curate an exhibition called “Activewear” reflecting the importance and relevance of sportswear in today’s world.

Elspeth Jenkins currently serves as the editor-in-chief of Marie Claire Belgium, a position she has held since 2024 following six years as the publication’s fashion director. She appeared as a guest jury member on the first season of Belgium’s Next Top Model in 2023.

Elspeth graduated from the London College of Fashion in 2006 and subsequently completed internships at esteemed publications such as Dazed & Confused and British Vogue. Upon returning to Belgium, she began her career as a fashion editor at Glam*It, and went on to establish herself as a stylist, with work featured in Dazed, Metal, Material Girl, Indie Magazine, De Standaard Magazine, and Sabato.

Patta was founded in 2004 by Edson Sabajo and Guillaume ‘Gee’ Schmidt. Both were instrumental in the Dutch hip-hop and nightlife community in the 90’s and early 2000’s. The pair also shared an obsession with hunting internationally for sneakers and records. They soon found themselves funneling a steady supply of gear from their travels, back home to their community in Amsterdam.

Soon demand started growing, and a cult brand was born. Today Patta is one of few internationally revered, black-owned streetwear brands and consists of a clothing line, Patta Soundsystem, Patta Running Team, Patta Foundation, Patta Academy, Patta Cycling Team, and Patta Magazine.
