EVENTS
Dina Vanelli at the
heart of Proposte
Proposte is a unique Europeanonly
show annually held in Cernobbio
town of Italy. It is unique for its
attendance, concept and venue. It
is held where ancient Villa Erba is.
Situated at the lakeside of Como
Lake, this villa is famous for many
aspects including Hollywood movies.
Proposte never accepts non-European
companies inside the event but Dina
Vanelli, along with two other Turkish
brands, has managed to go inside
because of its European prestige
and quality. It has many awards
from European organizations for its
innovative and high-end fabrics.
Mr. Erol Turkun, Chairman of the
Board of Turkun Holding, to which
Dina Vanelli belongs, said that their
quality was approved by Europe
and that’s why they were accepted
as a Proposte exhibitor. “This is a
pride for our company as well as our
industry,” Turkun says. “We have to
be innovative, quality and professional
in our business. We are part of
Europe anyways but we should feel
the responsibility of this identity and
act accordingly.”
Erol Turkun and Mehmet Soztutan, Editor-in-Chief of Home Textile Exports magazine, pose with an innovative fabric
developed by Dina Vanelli.
Erol Turkun said they would continue
to focus on R&D studies to innovate
new products and they would have
many novelties in the near future for
the fabrics industry.
Dina Vanelli has been a Proposte exhibitor inside the venue for two years. New collection of the company attracted a
great deal of interest especially from European buyers.
