THE EVENT

`Fashion (A) fair´ is not only a MARKET PLACE for the designers to sell their work; the event will be framed by LIVE PERFORMANCES in various forms to create an environment of interaction and entertainment.

Through the medium of LIVE PERFORMANCE we want to explore the idea of what fashion is, what clothes we wear, why and when, how we form our images through clothes and to celebrate the art and artistry of fashion design.

Live performances might happen through short devised theatre pieces, choreographies or dramatized poetry. The performances will be between 5-15 minutes in length. They will happen throughout the building and will be performed in intervals throughout the day.

We also intend to create a alternative fashion show in which we will present selected pieces of the designers through a theatrical piece.

Furthermore we believe by combining the world of fashion with another medium the exhibiting designers will also benefit from a wider range of visitors and thus a greater possibility to promote and sell their work.
