Qualified jury is going to assess collections and choose the winners; the author of the collection, which will get a grand prize, will participate in the final competition of the International Contest Clothes' Designers “The Golden Thread” at Fashion Week Poland in May 2010. “The Golden Thread” has been functioning for eighteen years and is known as one of the most prestigious European contests for young designers.

Within the framework of Lviv Fashion Week a charity auction will take place for the third time, and the funds collected at it will be directed to help Lviv Region Specialized Clinical Hospital for Children. Things designed in the tandem of a Ukrainian designer – a famous personality will be taken as lots for the auction.

Lviv Fashion Week is one of the most large-scale fashion events in Eastern Europe. Each day the shows are attended by 3-4 thousand people. The format of the project which envisages everyday shows of clothes collections of prêt-à-porter and prêt-à-porter de luxe class as well as parallel presentation of designers' collections in show-rooms has been expanded as contrasted to previous seasons with different art-events, artistic, jewelry and photo-displays.
