Ipak Creators is an Ipak Yuli Bank initiative supporting young talent. We create opportunities for their professional growth and help their work reach a wide audience.
About the project
We believe talent doesn’t depend on where a person lives or what opportunities they start with. That is why Ipak Creators is open to creators from the capital and the regions, as well as creators with special needs.
The project brings together several creative directions, known as Editions. Each focuses on a specific creative field and connects participants with relevant platforms where their work can be seen by industry professionals and wider audiences. The first is Fashion Edition, dedicated to supporting emerging fashion designers.
To create opportunities for young talent in Uzbekistan to be seen and heard, wherever they are.
Bring emerging creators’ work to the country’s leading professional platforms.
Connect young creators with recognized mentors in their field.
Attract creators from across the country — from the regions and with special needs — and give them equal opportunities to grow.
Invest in a new generation of designers, artists and other creators — and in the national culture they work with.
The project in numbers
Editions
One project, many creative fields. Choose an Edition to learn about its idea and participants.
Fashion Edition
Three young designers, together with mentor Liliya Palyunina (LiLiya Dulat®), created original looks for Visa Fashion Week Tashkent. November 17–18, Uzexpocentre.
About the Edition
Fashion Edition is the project’s first Edition. It is dedicated to emerging designers, including creators from the regions and creators with special needs. The initiative launches at Visa Fashion Week Tashkent 2026, one of the country’s key fashion platforms.
All Fashion Edition participants are finalists of Moda Yöli, the national competition for young designers. The competition and the Designers Club are led by Musharraf Ayupova and Dilfuza Zayniddinova.
An international fashion week that has brought designers from Uzbekistan, Central Asia and beyond to Tashkent twice a year since 2023.
Talent is everywhere — in the capital and across the regions, in classrooms and home workshops. But not every creator gets the opportunity to present their work to a wider audience.
Fashion Edition helps take the first step: from an idea and a sketch to a finished look on the country’s main fashion stage.
How Fashion Edition works
Three emerging designers take part — all finalists of the Moda Yöli competition.
Each designer works with Liliya Palyunina, designer and founder of LiLiya Dulat®.
With the bank’s support, each designer creates 2 original looks.
All 6 looks by the three designers are on display at the Ipak Creators stand on both days of the fashion week.
