Ashgabat is preparing to become a hub for the global fashion industry. Marzio Nocera, founder and chairman of Fashion Channel Italy, one of the most influential specialized media platforms in the world, will attend the Turkmen Textile Expo 2026, which will be held at the Chamber of Commerce and Industry from June 4 to 6.

Marzio Nocera, who has dedicated over 40 years to the fashion business, will arrive in the Turkmen capital as a guest of honor at the exhibition and a series of international fashion shows. His channel is a true giant in fashion journalism, broadcasting backstage footage, shows, and exclusive interviews from Milan and Paris Fashion Weeks, from Dolce & Gabbana to Versace.

The main intrigue of the visit is that, thanks to the head of the Italian media holding, the events in Ashgabat will be presented to the Fashion Channel's multi-million international audience. This is an unprecedented opportunity to highlight the potential of the Turkmen textile industry and introduce local couturiers to the world.

The Italian guest's program promises to be packed: the maestro will explore a large-scale exhibition of domestic companies and attend international shows featuring collections by designers from France, Morocco, Oman, Russia, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Turkmenistan.

At a time when specialized media are discovering new names on the luxury market map, Fashion Channel Italy's attention is elevating Turkmen Textile Expo 2026 to a whole new international level, transforming national brands into part of the global cultural context.
