The Art of Fashion: Installing Allusions
19 September 2009 - 10 January 2010
In The Art of Fashion, this autumn Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen investigates the borders between fashion and art. Today’s fashion designers use installations and performances, and their designs are often more sculptural than wearable. Five of them have been commissioned to make new work specifically for the exhibition.
