»Catwalk: The Art of the Fashion Show« at the Vitra Design Museum

Описание: They last barely fifteen minutes, yet their images are seen around the world: fashion shows are media spectacles, social rituals, and style-defining statements. With the exhibition »Catwalk: The Art of the Fashion Show«, the Vitra Design Museum is dedicating a major show to the phenomenon of fashion shows starting on October 18. The exhibition explores the history and cultural significance of the fashion show from its early forms around 1900 to the present day and brings together fashion houses such as Azzedine Alaïa, Balenciaga, Chanel, Dior, Gucci, Maison Martin Margiela, Prada, Viktor & Rolf, Louis Vuitton, Yohji Yamamoto, and many others. Original collection pieces, film and photographic material, stage objects, and show invitations animate over 100 years of fashion history on the catwalk.
