IFA Open Day

shabél paris showcase at IFA Open DAy

Shabèl Paris is proud to be part of IFA Open day 2025. Established in Paris for over 40 years, International Fashion Academy is dedicated to teaching the students the language of fashion and luxury, fostering their commitment, and training today’s fashion design and fashion marketing professionals for tomorrow’s world.

  • A Glimpse into Shabél Paris

    Our showcase at the IFA Open Day offered an introduction to the creative world of Shabél Paris—a practice that brings together fashion, art, craftsmanship and storytelling. It was an opportunity to share our work within a setting dedicated to fashion education and discovery.

  • Memory into Material

    For founder Shriwanthi Amarasinghe, fashion is a way to explore culture, memory and identity. Her approach connects Sri Lankan heritage with a creative life in Paris, translating personal experiences into expressive silhouettes, considered details and material experimentation.

  • Sharing Creative Possibilities

    The showcase reflects our belief in making creative journeys more visible. Sharing our practice in an educational setting opens a conversation about different paths into fashion, the value of experimentation and the possibilities that emerge when disciplines and cultures meet.
