On July 13th High Fashion Low Countries
showed a sneak preview in collaboration with Vlaams Cultuurhuis de Brakke Grond
as an official part of Amsterdam Fashion Week Downtown.
HIGH FASHION LOW COUNTRIES is a vivid
example of how relevant entities and cutting-edge designers from Belgium and
The Netherlands are taking note of changing times, realizing that cultural
entities, not just businesses, need to think broadly and imaginatively to ensure
their continuing excellence and long-term success. Sustainable development,
craftsmanship, the use of alternative materials and a less-seasonal view on
fashion have gained attention amongst entrepreneurs and emerging designers in
both countries.
For this project each designer worked on a
capsule collection of three looks that will be presented in an upcoming
exhibition in Brussels from October 12th to 26th 2012 (MAD Brussels and Modo Parcours)
One look out of each collection is
presented here in exclusive at De Brakke Grond during Amsterdam Fashion
Week.
A must-see tip for everyone who is in
Amsterdam during the fashion week!
