About this podcast

During Covid-19, we have witnessed the current fashion industry crumble as clothing sales go down, shows get cancelled, and more people turn to DIY. We ask, with hope: What will be rebuilt in the shell of the previous industry? Who’s Fashion Week is it? The exhibition NOBODY`S FASHION WEEK is a reimagining of the fashion industry from the bottom up.

This podcast is part of NOBODY`S FASHION WEEK and presents a very special ABC of Fashion. Listen to two highly creative, profund and critical-engaged fashion minds. Listen to Mikaila Brown, fashion anthropologist and entrepreneur and Otto von Busch, writer, hacktivist and Parsons professor. I, Johanna Schwab, co-curator of Nobody's Fashion Week, gave them a selection of words for each letter, they chose one and started talking spontaneously. They were encouraged to bring their unique lense and background, resulting in a very personal and specific collection. New, surprising, and philosophical perspectives on words related to the sphere of fashion emerge. You'll find lots of ideas and thoughts around the question: How to make fashion a better place?

(the recordings were made on Zoom)

NOBODY`S FASHION WEEK is an online exhibition hosted by Flux Factory in New York City. The exhibition runs from September 1st to October 15th. For further information visit our website: www.nobodysfashionweek.com
