Tuesday, November 26, 2024 – 17:00–Tuesday, November 26, 2024 – 19:00
We’re excited to welcome founders of UP [øpp], Julie L. Parisi & Andrea Johannesen, for their Guest Salon titled «Alternative Shows in Fashion and the Symbiosis Between Architecture, Design, Choreography and Fashion»! UP [øpp] was an independent fashion show which was produced as four different shows/exhibition in Oslo, Norway in the period between 2013-2014. The main goal was aim to lift and showcase up-and-coming designers in Norway, by creating inspiring and unique universes for each shows. Spearheaded by Parisi & Johannesen, UP [øpp] also wanted to contribute and create a space for professional networking, which could open the opportunity for collaboration and opportunities for developing independent work for the selected designers.
On upcoming Tuesday, 26th of November from 18.00-20.00, Parisi & Johannesen will take us backstage at UP [øpp] and share scenes and reflections from the shows' production and planning. Why was it important for them to make an alternative scene/space for up-and-coming fashion designers and creatives back in 2012? How can we foster collaboration and interconnection between different areas of practice, from architecture, design, choreography and fashion? Welcome!
This is the tenth edition of Guest Salons; an active meeting point for free conversations around and beyond fashion, once a month at International Library of Fashion Research.
