The first CFW was in 2012 and was a roaring success, it was the first event to celebrate Cardiff's status as one of the leading shopping destinations in the UK (Cardiff has been described by one person as having better shopping than Milan, although I don't know if we would go that far)
The 2013 CFW runs from the 19th to the 27th of Ocotber and is shaping up to be an even more exciting event than 2012's.
Expect to see emerging designers showcasing their new collections, much loved high street stores displaying on catwalks and the whole week to finish off in the Hilton Hotel with the high-glamour retail awards.
There willl be fring events happening across the city, including instore fashion shows, champagne receptions, promotions, makeovers and live photoshoots. One of the best places to go to see the independent side of fashion would be Cardiff Fashion Quarter, opposite the castle. Events will be taking place there sporadically over the whole week.
If you're a regular shopper in Cardiff or just someone who wants to come along and take a look at what is happening over the week take a look at the CFW Twitter and Facebook pages to stay up to date with all of the weeks events.
