FashionTV and Three Bulgarian Designer Brands Expand the BEGE EXPO 2026 Programme
Bulgaria
BEGE EXPO 2026 will add a new dimension to its business and entertainment programme. On 25–26 November at Inter Expo Center in Sofia, the exhibition will feature fashion shows, designer jewellery and accessories with the participation of FashionTV and three Bulgarian brands - ATELIER BANDEROL, Bran&Co. and MIA TOUCHÉ.
For the first time, FashionTV Gaming Group will serve as an official partner of BEGE EXPO. The partnership will extend across the exhibition programme and accompanying events, connecting the gaming business with fashion, luxury brands and premium entertainment.
Announced highlights include fashion shows, diamond parades and appearances by international FashionTV personalities, including Ania J, one of the brand’s recognisable faces. The Bulgarian participants will represent three distinct areas of design: formalwear, bespoke jewellery and leather accessories.
ATELIER BANDEROL: From Karlovo to International Runways
Fashion house ATELIER BANDEROL will bring the creative vision of its founders, Nikola Karadamyanov and Desislava Damyanova, to BEGE 2026. Their work combines formal silhouettes, luxury fabrics and original designs across womenswear and menswear.
The brand’s story began in 2002 with a small atelier in Karlovo, Bulgaria. The designers subsequently built an international presence through participation in fashion events in Dubai, Italy, Türkiye and the Netherlands. Their achievements include the Grand Award at Qingdao Fashion Week in China in 2026, presented for their original collection of women’s and men’s formalwear.
ATELIER BANDEROL also has a presence in Bulgarian television. The fashion house has created outfits for presenter Niki Kanchev and participants in the Bulgarian edition of The Chase, as well as productions including The Bachelor: Love in Paradise and My New Me.
Its participation in BEGE will introduce the designers’ work to the exhibition’s international business audience.
Bran&Co.: Bespoke Jewellery and a Distinctive Stage Presence
Bran&Co. will contribute original jewellery, handcrafted pieces and limited editions to the fashion programme. Founded in 2024, the brand focuses on personalisation and designs intended to stand out as defining elements of a complete look.
Public figures for whom Bran&Co. has created bespoke jewellery include Lili Ivanova, Preslava, Azis, Gery-Nikol, Aleks Bogdanska and Serbian singer Tea Tairović.
The brand’s work connects designer accessories with stage performance and show business, complementing FashionTV’s approach to bringing fashion into premium entertainment.
MIA TOUCHÉ: Leather Accessories with a Distinctive Design Identity
The third Bulgarian participant is MIA TOUCHÉ, founded by designer Maria Radoslavova. The brand develops limited collections of leather accessories, focusing on geometric shapes, precise craftsmanship and contemporary aesthetics.
Individuality and experimentation with form are central to its collections. The accessories are conceived as focal points within an outfit, each with its own character and recognisable design.
MIA TOUCHÉ completes the Bulgarian designer selection at BEGE 2026, presenting another perspective on the development of the country’s fashion brands.
FashionTV Beyond the Exhibition Floor
FashionTV Gaming Group’s presence will also extend to accompanying events, including the annual BEGE party. The fashion programme will therefore form part of the wider experience for exhibitors, partners and visitors.
The participation of the three Bulgarian brands places local design within BEGE’s international setting and creates further opportunities for connections across business sectors. For the exhibition, the partnership with FashionTV Gaming Group broadens the format by combining professional meetings with fashion and entertainment.
BEGE EXPO 2026 will take place on 25–26 November at Inter Expo Center in Sofia, Bulgaria.
