Taliya Minullina, Head of the Investment Development Agency of the Republic of Tatarstan, noted the importance and the potential of the modest fashion segment. In her words, holding a modest fashion show within the framework of an international economic forum offers the chance to create a business platform for designers where they can discuss the challenges they face and address the issues of the day.
