Fetishism - Menswear FW2015

Boris Bidjan Saberi

Moba edition for Arnhem Mode Biennale in 2013 was curated by Lidewij Edelkoort around the theme of Fetishism in Fashion. Iconic item chosen to express this concept was the apron, showing that there is more to fetishism than just bondage.
Edelkoort made aprons one of the edition’s most prominent items of clothing. ‘‘It symbolizes subservience and the open back makes aprons one of the most fetishistic items of clothing”.

Two years later the concept of 'Fetishism in Fashion' is present in various fashion collections. Next to the skirts, nudity and 'gender-play', aprons where literally featured in some menswear collections.
