The online platform 'Ce Fain!' (How Cool!), a project dedicated to promoting Romanian designers and connecting them with the international fashion and design scene, will be officially launched on Friday at the Romanian Cultural Institute in New York, during an exclusive gala celebrating contemporary Romanian creativity, innovation, and elegance.
