Exhibition "Fashion Diaries: From Design to Implementation" Automatic translate

The Nagornaya Gallery will host the exhibition Fashion Diaries: From Design to Implementation. This exhibition provides a unique opportunity to see a real fashionable backstage, to get closer to the very “fashion diaries” that show the process of creating clothes carefully documented in sketchbooks, photos, videos and works.

In the work of the fashion designer, we tend to see only the front side, which boils down to a model lasting several minutes during the show, while the “fears and tears” and months of painstaking work often remain invisible behind the tightly closed workshop doors.

The exposition consists of three parts, dating back to the three projects that the participants carried out during their studies at the Department of Fashion Design at the British Higher School of Design. The first part is devoted to the “White Project”, in which designers had to create a product from white materials, the second part presents the so-called “Black Project”, which demonstrates an individual vision of symbolically loaded and without exaggeration the most fashionable - black - color. Finally, the logical finale of the exposition is the graduation collections, on which designers worked in the last year of the School and which were shown as part of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Russia Fashion Week in 2014.

Lyudmila Alyabyeva: “The exhibition shows the formation of a fashion designer and clearly demonstrates the depth and semantic richness of a completely unique creative process that combines craft and art, theory and practice, the virtuality of design and the reality of its embodiment.”

Nelly Kim: “I think this exhibition is important for me, because it will provide an opportunity for all visitors, especially those who want to engage in this profession, to show the true picture of what is clothing design, how much work it is, and how the idea develops, namely, what inspiration flows into and where it comes from. ”

Within the framework of the exhibition, a lecture will be given by the chief editor of the journal Theory of Fashion: Clothing, Body, Culture, the curator of the exhibition Lyudmila Alyabyeva, as well as workshops with fashion designers, graduates of the British Higher School of Design Anna Azevich, Vera Kulshitskaya, Julia Pakalina, Anastasia Bernatskaya, Julia Erokhina, Nelly Kim for adults and children on the creation of a sketchbook.

The participants:

Fashion designers: Anna Azevich, Anastasia Bernatskaya, Julia Erokhina, Nelly Kim, Victoria Kolesnova, Svetlana Kuzina, Vera Kulshitskaya, Anna Mazurets, Julia Pakalina, Daria Shariko

Organizers

Gallery "Nagornaya" began its work in 1978. This is the first state municipal gallery in Moscow, created outside the center. Initially, the gallery showed mainly academic painting (socialist realism, critical realism, “harsh style”, “left” MOSH), but over the years the focus has shifted towards modern digital technologies, multimedia, installations, photography. Many projects are carried out in collaboration with the largest Moscow and regional museums, cultural foundations, creative unions, art universities, cultural centers at embassies of different countries, as well as the heirs of artists and collectors. ) www.galereya-nagornaya.ru )

The Fashion Theory: Clothing, Body, Culture magazine (New Literary Review Publishing House) is Russia’s first humanitarian journal dedicated to fashion as a cultural phenomenon. The range of topics is the history of costume and design, bodily practices, historical ideas about beauty and fashionable figure, fashion and urban life (architecture, street fashion, cafes, shopping routes), fashion and art. This is the only magazine in the country focused on an interdisciplinary study of fashion in an academic manner, which fundamentally distinguishes it from other fashion publications that are commercial in nature. ) http://www.nlobooks.ru/tm )
