Bridges to Fashion

The four days’ Dutch/Turkish fashion manifestation Bridges to Fashion took place in 2008/2009 in the Historisch Museum Rotterdam and in many other unexpected places, such as an old railway platform. Bridges to Fashion showed collections, designed by a large group of Turkish and Dutch designers, ranging from streetwear to haute couture with exhibitions, shows, movies, performances, talkshows, a symposium, parties and a designerstore. Designers like Monique van Heist, Marga Weimans, Claes Iversen, Iris van Herpen, Bas Kosters, Edwin Oudshoorn, Arzu Kaprol, Bahar Korçan, Sibel Aygün and many others, showed their collections.

Elegancia Holandesa

In 2006 and 2007 the exhibition Elegancia Holandesa has been shown in Bolivia, Argentinia and Brasil. The work of 40 Dutch designers was shown in the exhibition: hats, shoes, gloves, jewellery, shawls, stockings, bags and autonomous work. In Bolivia hat designer Bart Konter gave a well-attended hat workshop.  

The exposition attracted a lot of attention from media, like live television, articles in newspapers, etc.
The project was an initiative of Mirta Demare (Stichting Essential Arts) and Karin van Paassen.
