Multivisual
adventures at the meeting of fashion and visual culture
A virtual
fashion show from USE, a young Hungarian trio of designers. The
event started with a video clip of their autumn/winter collection.
These designers are inspired by Hungarian folk art: a mixture of
traditional folk apparel and the
use of motifs mixed with contemporary fashion. The video was made by
Fatima Kazár and János Hunyadi, both young video makers.
