Enter the world of Fashion...

For a month the centre of Arnhem literally formed the core of the third edition of the Arnhem Mode Biënnale. SHAPE was the connecting thread for the greatest cultural fashion event in the world. In 2009 more than 80 fashion labels participated, including Lanvin, Raf Simons, Hussein Chalayan, Jil Sander, Rick Owens, Martin Margiela and Viktor & Rolf.

 

Some 150 garments in Arnhem made abundantly clear what the aspect of SHAPE signifies and why ‘form’ is so topical in fashion. A high-profile exhibition, satellite presentations, lectures, shows and a magazine provided insight into SHAPE. A wide-ranging cultural scope made this third biennale intriguing and accessible for everyone.
