We don't know how she does it or how she gets access, but Jessica Minh Anh has traveled the world producing breathtaking fashion shows in the most incredible places. The model and entrepreneur transforms venues including yachts, canyons, rivers, skyscrapers and landmarks, into surprising and refreshing runways. The shows combine art, architecture, culture, and incredible beauty and fashion...all exhibited in a new light.

Besides the exquisite haute couture, high-end ready-to-wear, and jewelery collections, Jessica Minh Anh’s spectacular hairstyles are part of the attraction. Her architectural hairpieces, which are created by some of the most talented international artists, compliment her extraordinary visions.

Jessica Minh Anh, who marked her 10th history-making production in July with the world’s first solar powered catwalk, has worked with top designers and luxury brands including Montblanc, Paul Costelloe, Addy van den Krommenacker, Shiatzy Chen, Yumi Katsura, Tony Ward, and Buccellati, while promoting exceptional talents from the new generation such as Rami Kadi, Serkan Cura, Shilpa Reddy, and Hoang Hai. Talking about her iconic locations, Anh says “I believe the most outstanding designs should be showcased at the best of locations, using the most creative catwalk concepts. It’s a challenging process, but very rewarding”.

Here Anh shares the background for some of the shows:

The next show will be held this October in Paris along the Siene where the artist will share great beauty and fashion in a glass bottom boat. To create an illusion of models walking on water,  Anh will have guests seated facing the multi-faceted glass windows while the boat is cruising. As a result, Paris architectural wonders such as the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, the Louvre, and the 37 famous bridges will become the natural backdrop for the unique catwalk.
