Bata Fashion Weekend at Milan Fashion Week
The second Bata Fashion Weekend was even more spectacular and stunning than last year. Palazzo Mezzanotte in Milan was transformed into the centre of the fashion and design, which offered music performances, fashion shows and consumer-focused events. The main event started at the prestigious PallazzoMezzanotte. The venue felt the spirit of music, design and craftsmanship. Thomas Archer Bata, Chief Marketing Officer, Bata, commented: “This year we built Bata Fashion Weekend in the spirit of the concept “The Sound Of Style” as an extension of the global campaign “Me & Comfortable With It”, which promotes healthy self-confidence while fighting against prejudice. The aim was to transform the campaign into real environment of the Bata Fashion Weekend in every point of view.” During the gala evening, Bata presented the new brand manifesto “Me & Comfortable With It” and the new Bata ambassador, the singer Lenny, was revealed. Lenny’s new song Enemy and her overall style and beliefs fit Bata brand perfectly, supporting female empowerment and the value of diversity. In the evening Lenny and her band performed the song Enemy in the unplugged version. The Bata Fashion Weekend attracted fashion enthusiasts, influencers and ambassadors from all over the world, for example Maya Ali from Pakistan, LornahKiplagat from Kenya, Andrea Serna from Colombia and Anabel Angus from Bolivia. During the evening two winners of Bata Young Designers Challenge were announced, namely TerezaKanyzova
(UMPRUM, Prague, Czech Republic) with her shoes “Amulet”, and Andrea CellesteBeggio (PolitecnicoCalzaturiero, Milan, Italy) with her design titled “Erica”. Bata Fashion Weekend catwalk and shoe exhibitions featured the latest Bata collections: Red Label, B-Flex, Bata Heritage and others, including the shoes designed by the Young Designers Challenge finalists. The vibrant idea of Bata’s global campaign “Me & Comfortable With It” was presented by dynamic models and dancers, projections, lightshows and music. One of the model stars was NidhimKochhar, who lost his left foot in a motorcycle crash. Jana BarbatiChadová, Head of Global Marketing, Bata, wraps up: “Our goal was to expand the horizons and maintain the mood of the event. The main objective while creating this event was to inspire people, to surprise them and to create emotions and engagement with them through visual concept, music base and choreography of the show. We brought new ideas and innovations to the venue arrangements and also to the concept of the fashion show and the results was incredible. Thanks to Bata Fashion Weekend we had a chance to express what is our brand about to the whole world. We were able to show that we are a part of the conversation and a credible player when it comes to style and fashion. Bata is ready for the 21st century. Modern, innovative, technological and trendy. The whole event was successfully organized in cooperation with IMA Production, partners all over and Bata the Brand in Prague.

At the age of 11, one day after coming back from school, while playing with his friendsWaqarsuddenly fell down and wastaken to nearest clinic. After examination doctor suggested having some tests of Waqar Ahmed done. At that time it wasn’t even in the thoughts of Waqar’s parents that they were about to know the bitter truth that a merciless cancerous tumorwas developing inside the body of their innocent child. It made them wonderhowa healthy child likeWaqar could be diagnosed with a disease like this. The whole family was in a state of shock, and the pain was intensified with the feeling of helplessness, that they could not even afford the expensive treatment. Waqar was taken to many hospitals but did not get any satisfactory treatment. His parents were losing their child, their only reason to live when someone told them to go to Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital & Research Center, Lahore (SKMCH&RC). It was altogether a different world. The treatment they received there becomes an unforgettable experience for them. Unlikethe other hospitals they had taken Waqar to before, no one refused to cooperate or was harsh with us. Right from entering the walk-in clinic till today,Waqar
is receiving the best facilities and it is unbelievable that we are receiving all this without paying a single penny.”said his parents. After biopsy, Waqar was admitted immediately and got his treatment started and within two weeks of admission, he had his first chemotherapy session. The result was very painful as his body refused to accept the severity of the medicine. Soon he stared losing his hair. His color went pale and his weight was almost reduced to half.“ Withthe treatment going on for full days at time, we prayed to Allah Almighty for life of our beloved son as it was most painful time of our lives. I remember that I did not sleep for many nights because Waqar used to call me in his pain” says his mother. Waqar underwent 16 chemo sessions during his 8 months treatment.Heis now 14years old and a student of 8th class. He is a born artist, a singer, actor and a performer.Waqar visits the hospital regularly for follow-up checkups but this is not the only reason to visit SKMCH&RC. He has become a part of the hospital’s activities.”I pray toGod for the fulfilment of his dreamsI alsopray for the hospital’s management, doctors, staff and all supporters of Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre. Above all I thank Imran Khan for helping poor cancer patients” said his mother.
