Turkmen Designer Showcases Her Collection on Paris Runway

Turkmen designer Gowher Pirkulieva-Gouvernet reaffirmed her position as a standout representative of national fashion on the international stage by presenting her latest collection at Paris Haute Couture Week Fall/Winter 2025–2026, held July 7–10, as reported on her social media accounts.

Known for her signature style, Pirkulieva-Gouvernet once again demonstrated a refined blend of traditional Turkmen motifs with current European fashion trends. The new collection made an impression on both audiences and critics, harmonizing Eastern elegance with Western minimalism.

Her work is distinguished by a unique approach to interpreting national dress—creating modern silhouettes while preserving deep ties to Turkmenistan’s cultural heritage. This has become her trademark and has earned her international recognition.

Pirkulieva-Gouvernet has previously graced the runways of Paris and Milan. Each of her appearances helps draw global attention to Central Asian fashion traditions and promotes cultural dialogue between East and West.
