As the official air carrier of the event, Wizz Air operated flights to major European fashion capitals, selected the best-dressed passengers on its flights, and supported its flight attendants at fashion show’s runways.
Wizz Air, the leading low-cost airline in Romania, wrapped up a collaboration as the official airline and travel partner of Mercedes-Benz Bucharest Fashion Week’s third edition, blending aviation and fashion in a celebration of creativity, confidence and colour at Romania’s most prestigious fashion event.
Aviation is rarely being attributed to fashion, but rather strict schedule, uniforms and obsession to safety. Between October 15-18th, Wizz Air showed that an airline’s energy and bold spirit can get to the fashion scene. Three Wizz Air cabin crew members took their professionalism from the aircraft aisle straight onto the catwalk, modelling in shows by Storojuc, Borbala and Murmur – one of the most renowned and creative designers in the region – showing that a strict regime and discipline also easily translate into style and beauty on the catwalk.
“Walking for such iconic designers was an incredible experience. I could not imagine that my work in aviation could bring me to my first passion, modelling,” said Geanina Hîrjanu, flight attendant and WIZZ brand ambassador in Romania, who also took part in the catwalk. “Me and my colleagues always bring our professionalism and confidence to the cabin, but this time we had the chance to bring that same energy to the catwalk. It was an honour to represent Wizz Air in such a creative way and to show that the bold WIZZ spirit truly has no boundaries.”
On flights from London Luton, Paris Beauvais and Milan Bergamo to Bucharest Otopeni on October 7, 8, and 9th, Wizz Air invited passengers to travel with style and showcase their best flying outfits. Five passengers whose looks reflected elegance, originality and the vibrant WIZZ spirit were selected and awarded exclusive invitations to attend the fashion week shows and party in the heart of Bucharest.
“We are delighted to have Wizz Air by our side at this edition of Mercedes-Benz Bucharest Fashion Week, a brand that brings inspiration and energy to every travel experience. Our partnership reflects shared values of creativity, courage, and the desire to push boundaries, principles that define both contemporary fashion and the Wizz Air spirit. This year’s event proved that style and innovation can truly soar at the same altitude,” said Mario Antico and Roxana Voloșeniuc, Co-founders of Mercedes-Benz Bucharest Fashion Week.
During the show, Wizz Air continued to connect European major fashion hubs such as Milan, Paris and London, highlighting its growing network and affordable fares that inspire travellers to explore the world of style and culture. As the official travel partner of Mercedes-Benz Bucharest Fashion Week, Wizz Air reaffirmed its commitment to connecting people, cultures and creative industries. With its modern fleet, bold innovation and love for travel, Wizz Air continues to make flying accessible to everyone.
