Istanbul Fashion

In this exhibition, the museum will present a representative overview of current fashion design in Turkey and the country’s vibrant, western fashion scene which is mainly centred on Istanbul, Turkey’s cultural capital. The exhibition and the accompanying catalogue will for the first time in Germany present the most important and creative fashion designers in Turkey’s largest metropolis. The creations of the fashion designers are all strikingly original and modern. In the fashion designs they create Turkish designers reconcile the not always opposing poles of history and modernism, tradition and innovation, humanism and cosmopolitanism, philosophy and religion. For all of them, Istanbul is an inexhaustible source of impressions, inspiration, ideas and images.
