FASHIONPL AY<br />

Fashionplay is originally a website that was launched in December 2006<br />

by Therese Dahlqvist (Royal College of Fine Arts) and Helena Hertov<br />

(University College of Art Crafts and Design). Specially invited designers,<br />

scientists and artists are allocated space on the website to describe their<br />

<strong>fashion</strong>-related projects using both pictures and words.<br />

During Fashion Week, an exhibition will be arranged that presents six<br />

new projects while Therese Dahlqvist introduces “Urbanfem”, collections<br />

created through workshops that examine how <strong>fashion</strong> is used to explore<br />

identity and affiliation. Helena Hertov will show the film “Feeders” where<br />

the world of <strong>fashion</strong> moves into a “House of pigs”.<br />

N Presentation Tuesday 14 Aug. Open to the public Tuesday 14 to<br />

UNGDESIGN<br />

Children’s ”crazy” <strong>fashion</strong> drawings come to life on a catwalk.<br />

Ungdesign is a project that gives children between the ages 6 and 12<br />

the chance to express themselves in <strong>fashion</strong> and art. The end result is a<br />

collection based on <strong>fashion</strong> drawings created by the children. A total of<br />

15 garments have been produced based on these children’s imaginations.<br />

Bold colours, candy and “bizarre” forms are the core. The end results are<br />

displayed in adult sizes in a <strong>fashion</strong> show in collaboration with Hennes &<br />

Mauritz and Kulturhuset.<br />

Project initiator is Fredrik Samuelsson who studies men’s <strong>fashion</strong> at<br />

Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London.<br />
