Jennet Agayeva Makes Fashion History at WORLD WOMAN FORUM 2025
At the heart of the WORLD WOMAN FORUM 2025, held during the iconic GLOBAL BUSINESS WEEK in the Maldives, history was made as Jennet Agayeva, a young and visionary fashion designer from Turkmenistan, stepped onto the global stage with her debut international collection.
With grace, originality, and cultural pride, Jennet Agaeva became the first designer to officially represent Turkmenistan in the global fashion industry — a momentous achievement not only for her career but for her nation.
Her collection, met with admiration and awe, featured handmade embroidery on traditional Turkmen dresses, reimagined through modern silhouettes and global fashion aesthetics. Each piece told a story of heritage, elegance, and contemporary reinterpretation, bridging centuries-old craftsmanship with today's haute couture expression.
The show was made even more powerful by the choice of models: renowned women from different countries around the world proudly wore Jennet’s creations, symbolising the universal beauty and global appeal of Turkmen culture. Their presence on the runway demonstrated solidarity with a young designer’s bold vision and an entire nation’s artistic heritage.
From intricate detailing to vibrant colours and rich textures, Jennet Agaeva’s work highlighted the timeless power of national identity in a modern world — proving that traditional fashion can thrive on the global runway without losing its soul.
The fashion show was one of the standout moments of the WORLD WOMAN FORUM, underlining the event’s mission to celebrate female talent, cultural diversity, and entrepreneurship across borders.
As Turkmenistan makes its mark on the international fashion map, Jennet Agayeva stands as a symbol of bold creativity and cultural diplomacy, bringing her homeland’s artistry to the forefront of global admiration.
