Today marks the completion of a full cycle, a decade, and our first double-digit birthday.
10 years of FASHIONEL!
If there is a feeling of a second home and a second family, for us THIS IS IT. And over the years, that feeling has only strengthened, matured, grown, and along the way reminded us that we have our own place, a place to which we belong. A place that brings us together and which makes a collective out of individuals, and where we get to know each other anew every day and realize that we can do even more.
For 10 years, we have been consciously affirming true values.
For 10 years, culture and art in all its forms have had their own platform and their own front page, instead of being unfairly pushed to the margins of the "back pages" begging for their deserved place.
10 years of tireless enthusiasm and belief that the medium truly has the power to change things by giving them the right direction despite all the discouraging circumstances.
10 years of recognizing talents, life stories worth telling and hearing.
10 years that illustrate how free and creative thought is the rainbow that this "politically" obsessed society needs, to recognize the colors, the images, the nuances beneath the served grayness.
10 years of solidarity, empathy, humanity and everything that makes us human.
10 years of fashion education.
10 years of upgrading journalistic principles and guidelines.
10 years of networking, building relationships and bridges, making friends, camaraderie.
10 years of breaking down "walls" and bringing worlds together.
For 10 years, Fashionel has been our encounter with the best version of each of us, with the impossible becoming possible, with our heroes through conversations conveyed in interviews, with hidden talents in which we have recognized an otherworldly light and shown it to the world... To put on the "cover" someone whose name no one knows yet, and your intuition tells you that it is only a matter of time before everyone knows it... That is the blessing of our work.
10 years of yours among all!
3,650 days FASHIONEL
We thank all of you who are our wonderful companions on this exciting journey, to all of you who have in any way left your individual mark on our content, to all of you who have inspired us with your ideas and encouraged us with your successes, to all of you who start the day by browsing our pages, to all of the colleagues with whom we have grown and continue to grow together, and a most special THANK YOU to the lady without whose vision, FASHIONEL would not have been born, much less would it have reached the beginning of its first decade, Elena Pandeva, our greatest supporter from day one.
Cheers to all the 10s to come!
