Kreasi Lintas Cipta President Director Eka Mutia Yuliandarin, who is also the project
director of the "Fashion Paradise 2019" said Indonesian designers need a forum to
become more creative and innovative in designing clothes and producing fashion
products.

creativity. Training and facility are of great significance to create quality designers,"
she said.
Competition in the fashion world is not just a matter of winning and losing but also
an endeavor to rouse graduates undergoing training to show the guts to display
their works used by professional models, she said.
