From the 15th to the 30th of January you will be able to see well-known designers, but also some fresh new talent. No, I’m not talking about the Amsterdam International Fashion Week (it does however coincide with this), this is about winterSALON/. A dialogue between art, photography, illustrations and fashion. An initiative by SALON/, who want to spark a discussion about fashion and its ability to cross ‘design’ borders, and that’s exactly what makes this so interesting.
Not just anybody has the ability to make people see the similarities between art and fashion but SALON/ does, with over thirty contributors showing their work this time (They’re quite the ‘collection’ all by themselves). This event will take place at six beautiful, hand picked locations that contrast with the art. (Think Murakami in Versailles!) Don’t be fooled by the hideous flyer; it’s definitely worth your time.
