COColombia's fashion week, Colombiamoda, is expanding its programming for 2026 to include a full week of events from July 25 to 31, featuring an 'Opening Weekend' designed to enhance dialogue between fashion, entertainment, and culture. This year's event will be inaugurated by Colombian singer J Balvin through his collaboration with designer Juan David Vélez under the project 'Artisan Gang in The City.' The collection aims to reinterpret Colombian artisanal luxury through themes of identity, territory, and transformation. J Balvin has been actively involved in shaping the conceptual framework of the project, blending urban aesthetics with elements of Colombian and Latin American imagery. This marks the fourth collaboration between the musician and Vélez, with Balvin playing a central role beyond being a brand ambassador.
