European Fashion Award - Fash 2009 - under the title "New Diversity"
A new hybrid fashion is presenting designers with a great challenge. How can you design variety instead of uniformity, collages instead of decals, flexible offers instead of rigid styles and still create a clear design statement? What do new, visionary strategies for fashion in the 21st century look like? The European Fashion Award – FASH 2009 – is searching for answers under the title “New Diversity”.
FASH is open to design students of all disciplines in the fourth
semester or higher from all over Europe. There is also a category for
graduates. Interdisciplinary submissions are expressly requested.
