More Than Just An Online Platform: Cityblis Is A Community Of Creative Talents And Fashion Savvy People
A place where trendsetters and fashion forward innovators meet; Cityblis has created an influential community for designers and fashion lovers alike.
Helping designers as small businesses, Cityblis starts at a grassroots level with the designer themselves, then at a business level by collaborating with organizations, and finally at a political level by bringing in the support of government bodies to break down barriers within the fashion industry.
These barriers include issues such as import/export, logistics and taxation, and with an understanding that government participation is necessary for creating real world solutions for international trade.
So What’s In It For Fashion Lovers?
Discover the latest fashion trends direct from the designers! Cityblis not only allows designers to showcase their creativity but more importantly allows them to tell their story - giving you (the fashion lover) a sneak peek behind the designer, their products and their brands. Find the coolest items from around the world that matches your personal style and most importantly…that no one else is wearing!
The best part about buying new fashion is sharing it with others. Cityblis has implemented multiple streams to let you follow your friends shopping activities, see the latest trends from around the world, find great designers, get the latest news, read tips from style experts and socialize with others in the fashion industry. By making Cityblis totally free, designers are able to offer their fashions to you at lower prices.
Aimed to recreate a truly social shopping experience, Cityblis is bringing the fun of online shopping back to the internet!

And What’s In It For Artists And Designers?
Cityblis enables designers and artists, their brands and their designs, to become visible to the world. By working directly with fashion magazines and fashion bloggers, Cityblis allows brands to tell their story.
For additional exposure they partner with fashion events and runway shows in Europe, the US and Australia. Cityblis also works with procurement houses and retail buyer associations who are anxious to discover new designers and purchase their collections for a given season. New avenues for exposure and customers are made available with the right tools and the right connections. This is how Cityblis can help designers and artists branch out globally and tell the story behind their brand.

Fashion Meets Technology
Cityblis is one of the most advanced fashion platforms currently available implementing cloud technology, API integration and the latest features and technologies to improve the user experience. Linked and mashed with popular online social networks, Cityblis allows users to instantly authenticate, share, like, re-post and discuss content simultaneously to multiple networks.
The technology is set up to allow designers (small businesses) to be able to create unique and beautiful webshops complete with eCommerce capabilities and direct integration with social networks; requiring no knowledge of HTML, no hiring of web developers, no maintenance and no cost.
All-in-all, Cityblis creates a virtual mall where a user can customize the look, the feel, the music and almost every aspect of their own webshop while still being part of a larger community. Although slightly trivial, this community structure enables small businesses to gain more visibility and achieve higher search rankings, putting them directly in front of consumer’s eyes.
