There will also be animated projections created by Rodeo FX, known for their work on Stranger Things and Blade Runner 2049.
“We want people to feel inspired, reflect, and expand their perspective on fashion,” commented Horsting. Loriot, for his part, defended the importance of showcasing fashion in a museum: “The work of Viktor & Rolf is not about trends, but pure creativity.”
With this exhibition, the designers hope to bring their art closer to the American public and demonstrate that fashion is much more than clothing: it is a form of artistic expression.
