Brussels Fashion Week (MODE 1000) and the associated showroom week are held in February and September. FFGR Belgium provides VIP transport throughout the Brussels fashion calendar.
Brussels Fashion Week, officially presented as MODE 1000, takes place in February and September. The event has grown significantly since its restructuring in the mid-2010s and now attracts buyers from Paris, London, Amsterdam, and New York alongside the Belgian trade and press. The show venues are primarily in the Tour & Taxis complex (the restored 1907 customs and rail depot in Laeken) and in the Villers Foundation's spaces near the Sablon.
FFGR Belgium during fashion week: the combination of tight show schedules, multiple venue changes, and the professional appearance requirements of fashion week participants makes private chauffeur service particularly practical. FFGR Belgium provides event-day transport for designers, buyers, stylists, and journalists attending MODE 1000.
The circuit: a typical fashion week day involves a morning appointment at the MODE 1000 showroom complex (typically Bâtiment E at Tour & Taxis), an afternoon runway show (various venues including the Palais des Beaux-Arts and private galleries in the Sablon), and an evening presentation or dinner (the fashion week social calendar is concentrated in the Sablon and Ixelles).
Vehicle for fashion week: the Rolls-Royce Ghost is the visible choice (arrivals at shows are, for the fashion industry, still partly theatrical); the Maybach S680 is preferred for buyers and editors who prefer to arrive without making a statement about the vehicle.
Fashion week booking: advance booking essential for September edition (Brussels' busiest fashion week). February edition: 72 hours advance booking typically sufficient. Contact FFGR Belgium's events desk for full-week packages (5 days, priority dispatch, dedicated chauffeur).
