Fashion Projects

Fashion Projects Fashion Projects is a digital and print publication which sets out to deepen the understanding of fashion and textile design in relation to other branches of design and greater visual culture. It is a non profit organization, which was started in New York in 2004, with the aim to create a platform to highlight the importance of fashion — especially “experimental” fashion — within current critical discourses. Through interviews with a range of artists, designers, writers and curators, as well as through other planned projects and exhibits, we hope to foster a dialogue between theory and practice across disciplines. We have previously received grants from the Lower Manhattan Community Council and the New York City Council of Cultural Affair. Our first issue focused on forgery, appropriations and notions of authenticity in design production and consumption, while the second issue focused on fashion collectives and collaborative projects. Our website features additional interviews with design theorists, practioners and curators, as well as exhibitions and book reviews. Our next planned issue explores the relation between fashion and memory with a particular focus on fashion and textile collections and archives and their function in the construction, preservation and dissemination of culture... If in London, don't miss the London College of Fashion and the Centre for Sustainable Fashion's celebration of the launch of Eco Chic The Fashion
