Clash project & Theatrical Encounters
Two specialties of FASHIONCLASH are the interdisciplinary projects such as the Clash project and Theatrical Encounters.
Under the slogan Clash project several non-fashion designers and artists will create alternative clothing in connection with their usual discipline.
This year designer Maaike Fransen, stylist Natalia Kacper Mleczak, product designer Kaspar Hamacher and artist Olek and eight other designers and artists will translate their vision of fashion into an outfit for the catwalk.
The FASHIONCLASH Market offers visitors the chance to browse, to get inspired and to purchase unique clothing, accessories and design of young designers. The market will take place in Cenre Céramique.
There is no doubt about FASHIONCLASH Maastricht 2012 being an outstanding event nobody should miss out. For this weekend in June Maastricht will become a fabulous fashion hotspot that does not need to fear the comparison with any other European fashion metropolis.
