Belgrade - the rising fashion metropol

 Belgrade,one of the oldest cities in Europe, is moving towards the modern world with high speed. As the confluence of Sava and Danube rivers is the fashion world around here. Embracing the Milan born concept stores, building huge shopping malls and improving their fashion week I can say that stylish people are popping on every corner with fierce outfits that make your head turn.
I usually see the city's fashion when I'm actually there but you can capture the picture from their edition of the Elle magazine, and definitely the serbian models around the world.
Also their fashion designers are influencing the world fashion scene, just look at Roksanda Ilincic. Born in Belgrade, she started studying applied arts at the Belgrade university and continued her studies in London. Nowadays, her designs are worn by high profile clients, and are taking place next to the worlds greatest fashion designs.
Another notable person in the fashion world, serbian born, is Rushka Bergman. She is a co editor at L'Uomo Vogue and Vogue Italia and was the personal stylist of Michael Jackson.
Georgina Stojiljkovic was featured in the 2010 Pirelli calendar photographed by Terry Richardson as well as doing runways for many designers including Bottega Veneta, Dolce & Gabbana, Hermes, Lanvin, Prada, Versace and many more.
Not to mention the male models ;)
