MoBA 13 Mode Biennale Arnhem...with some Lovesick

MoBA 13 was an incredible exhibit for the Mode Biennale Arnhem, Netherlands (June 8 - July 21, 2013), with the theme "Fetishism In Fashion", curated by Lidewij Edelkoort.

It was with great astonishment that I received an email which requested to borrow items to include in the exhibit ! Sadly I was not able to travel to Arnhem to attend in person. I have found a couple of images from the exhibit which include my work - so apparently I did not dream this !

Lovesick is included with some far superior company :

Items which were borrowed include the Skeleton Corset, the Skeleton Collar, the Ruffled Traction Headpiece, the collar and faux legbraces, the Black Faux Orthopedic Back Brace, the Skeleton Bodice, and a Black Patent Leather fan-laced back brace. I have no idea what made the curatorial cut, but I was truly shocked to view the Ruffled Traction Headpiece on display with a John Paul Gaultier gown !







These are some promo shots for the exhibit (photographer unknown). The corset in the second photo appears to be the black Faux Orthopedic Brace, worn upside down.
