Design am Rhein for young & aspiring fashion talents

The fashion label Dora Abodi by young Rumanian designer Dorottya Abodi Nagy was already set up during her fashion studies at the Mod'Art International Art and Fashion Academy in Budapest. Her avantgarde 20101/11 Autumn/Winter collection bears the unusual name 'David Bowie in Atlantis' and is inspired by a combination of shapes and colours of the sea with that characteristic David Bowie 80s glam rock style. For instance, within one collection she features minimalist silhouettes in lavishly shimmering and playfully fish-like materials and creates a link with a mysterious undersea world where everything is constantly in motion. This contrasts with stretch bodies and leggings, metallic silk, iridescent synthetic fabrics and leather jackets with protruding shoulder pads.

The fashion label 'Großer Heinrich' is described by its two designers Astrid Großer and Gerti Heinrich as a “perception-diagnosing experiment”. Their degree show collection at Bielefeld Polytechnic is entitled 'Die Flügelchen machen die Bären so lustig'(The Little Wings make the Bears so Funny) and features a collection of bears, butterflies, inkblots and coincidental images. The psycho-diagnostic method of inkblot interpretation made famous by Hermann Rorschach is the creative basis for the design process here; it is from this that methods for creating form and colour develop.

The choice of materials indicates dynamic correlations; an interplay of different surfaces and structures. The merging and intertwining of smooth, silky, rough and coarse woven and knitted tactile surfaces underlines the multi-layered feel and reflects the multifaceted approach and the shimmering of the coloured prints on a material level. This produces a collection image that is not clean and purist but complex, organic and rich in colour, form and material combinations.
