Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A contemporary look at both traditional clothing and street styles from 38countries around the world and the influence these two very different kinds of dress are having on fashionand designers today. Traditional dress from around the globe inspiredthe early designs of people like Coco Chanel and Christian Dior. Culture to Catwalk looks back at the roots of the industry, the backlash against brashconsumerism, globalisation and 'fast-fashion' and that what people arewearing locally on the streets is once again influencing what stalksthe catwalk (just as at the turn of the century). It features interviews andquotes from designers and brands including Hussein Chalayan, Rei Kawakubo, Sophia Kokosalaki and many more.
