| New Order of Fashion - Neža Simčič |
Dutch Design Week 2024 (DDW24) presented the future of design and new schools of thought. From 19 to 27 October, the city of Eindhoven was once agaib transform into an international hub for new ideas for a better future.
Dutch Design Week is all about the design of the future and the future of design. During the nine-day event, Eindhoven is completely dedicated to design and covers all possible disciplines and aspects of design. The emphasis is on expertise and talent, experimentation, innovation, and crossovers.
The theme for the 2024 edition was named Real Unreal. The theme addresses how we navigate all the different realities our world nowadays consists of. What is real and what is not, and where do all of our very diverse perspectives meet? Designers explore and question what we accept as truths, and show us ways forward we never imagined.
To visit the extensive program you need multiple days. I have visited several locations, next to the
Design Academy Graduation, that is always a highlight for me, here are some of my other highlights
.
New Order of Fashion
New Order of Fashion’s Regeneration: From the Source exhibition during Dutch Design Week presents innovative fashion and textile design projects. This years exhibition focused on regenerative fashion projects that propose ideas to rethink our entire system - how we think about and care for resources, collaborate with nature, and shape our relationships with the world around us. New Order of fashion offers a vision of how fashion and design can contribute to a regenerative, future-proof way of living.

| Anthotyping Landscapes |
New Order of Fashion showcases emerging perspectives and innovative methodologies by showcasing the next generation of fashion visionaries. Alongside its yearly curated selection of illustrative designs from talents from leading national and international academies, NOOF highlights the work of students and researchers involved in the North Plus Collaboration. This collaborative initiative, involving Aalto University, the Iceland University of the Arts, and the Estonian Academy of Design, focuses on pioneering research into the potential of seaweed within the framework of a regenerative "blue economy." Seaweed not only provides sustainable material options but also reminds us of the power of natural resources that can be renewed and strengthened if used wisely.

The Body Project
 |
| Ton Zwerver |
“The Body Project” by the The Body Collective is an ongoing dialogue between different creators, their work and the focus on the body. Through this project the collective wants to make changing perspectives regarding the body visible and discussable by using the body as an instrument, object and as performative material. In doing so, they want to re-contextualize the context of jewelry by examining the relationship with the body as a framework and questioning and making insightful the relationship between the body and the object.
Through the presentation at DDW, they aim to put the discipline at the center of contemporary issues.
Collaborations between makers from different disciplines, moving at the intersection of different disciplines, such as, photography, performance, fine art and fashion are the focus during the presentation. The body was approached in “The Body Project” from different perspectives such as; culture, identity, objectification, de humanisation, power structures, social engineering, the future, the repressed body, the future body (post humanism), the superfluous body (robotics)
As part of the side program, FASHIONCLASH was invited to host a conversation 'Fashioning the Body - the relationship between the body and fashion'. The conversation, moderated by Aya Noël, featured Marlou Breuls (House of Rubber), Dirk Vaessen and Anouk van Klaveren (Das Leben am Haverkamp).
The Body Project participants; Lisette Appeldorn, Christiaan Bastiaans, Célio Braga, Kristin Beeler, Yarina Dai, Elke Desutter, Bill Durgin, Loan Favan, Maaike Fransen, Naomi Filmer, Anke Huyben, Esther Jiskoot, Jeannette Knigge, Lucy McRae, Chequita Nahar, Onno Poiesz, Katja Prins, Ana Rajcevic, Juvana Soliven, Ton Zwerver.
The Body Collective is an artist initiative, consisting of 3 artists/designers (Chequita Nahar, Anke Huyben and Katja Prins) who collaborate on initiating, organizing and producing exhibitions and other events such as lectures, talks, film screenings etc. We aspire to be a leading platform for dialogue and encounter between design and the visual arts.

Manifestations Festival 2024 during DDW
Manifestations festival at DDW 19-27 Oct in Eindhoven, was dedicated to
showing the more human side of technology. Curator Viola van Alphen has
selected works by over fifty young artists and recent graduates that aim
to shine a light on the exciting interaction between human
beings and technology. The festival touched on themes as wide-ranging
and current as geopolitical superpowers, body enhancements, robots,
fear, hope, mass media, e-Fashion and the Macho versus the feminine.
Participants include An Ye Zhi de Jong, Abel Kamp, Wouter Oomen, Maraya
Ivanova, Jeroen Icks and many young talents of Dutch art academies 2024.
The 2024 theme 'INVISIBILITIES' is about things that often remain invisible in our society. A common example of this is victim blaming. Artists show how greed, ignorance and difference can lead to inequality and exclusion. The works of art invite to think about topics such as economic inequality, discrimination and the exclusion of vulnerable groups.
Manifestations also gives out awards to promising young designers. The Young Talent Award 2024 first place was given to Daan Sonnemans for the project Kantamanto Social Club. The second place went 'First Church of the Esrta-Terrestrial' by Dorothy Hendriks and third place to MAI by Maraya Ivanova.
