Exhibition: Screenwear
Screenwear - Exploring Digital Fashion was on view at the Design Museum Den Bosch until 27 February 2023. New Order of Fashion was hired as a curatorial consultant on the groundbreaking exhibition. NOoF's creative director Harm Rensink was responsible for the exhibition design.
Digital Fashion has long since ceased to be science fiction. Fashion created from pixels instead of textiles is almost imperceptibly part of everyday life for many people. Slowly we are moving toward the Metaverse: the future virtual world of the Internet in which our physical environment will merge with the digital one. For the necessary digital closet, there is already a wide range: from comfortable hoodies you buy as NFT to designs that go beyond the laws of nature for your social media. Not to mention collectibles from prominent fashion houses for your favorite game.
You can immerse yourself in this digital world at the exhibition Screenwear – Exploring Digital Fashion. Discover the newest generation of fashion designers, meet face to face with hyper-realistic digital models and try the latest digital fashion for your social media yourself. But above all, get answers to all your questions about digital fashion. What exactly is it and how do you wear it? Who are shaping digital fashion? What do these developments mean for the fashion industry and society? Will we all soon be buying digital clothes? And do we actually want to…?
Screenwear includes works by Auroboros, SHOWstudio and The Fabricant amongst others, as well as NOoF talents Studio PMS, Scarlett Yang and Leevi Ikäheimo. The exhibition is curated by Anne-Karlijn van Kesteren.
