Quality vs. Quantity - Unique design "made in the Euregion" The FAB Pop-up Store gives emerging talents a platform to showcase and sell their products in a temporary shop.

Visitors can discover fascinating jewellery, clothing and accessories. Exclusive design and quality!
Who’s with me? - Participating designers During previous editions, rising fashion labels such as Sofie Claes, Lena Berens and Hui Hui were among the participants.
