De modeachtbaan van Piet Paris in Arnhem
ARNHEM - Niet de kleding, maar de paspoppen zijn het eerste wat opvalt bij de Arnhem Mode Biënnale. De meeste paspoppen op de tentoonstelling Shape zijn namelijk gemaakt van siliconen en zo levensecht dat je zou zweren met echte modellen te maken te hebben. Vrijdag opende prinses Máxima de derde editie van de Arnhem Mode Biënnale, waarvan de tentoonstelling Shape het hoogtepunt is.
De tentoonstelling, samengesteld door mode-illustrator en artistiek leider Piet Paris, begint op vijf meter hoogte en slingert als een houten catwalk door de binnenstad van Arnhem. Op die catwalk zijn tien paviljoens gebouwd waarin Paris zijn visie op vorm prijsgeeft.

Vorm, de essentie van een kledingstuk, heeft Paris verdeeld in drie onderdelen: traditie, verbazing en concept. Het zijn abstracte thema's die levendig worden verbeeld met exclusieve kledingstukken van internationale ontwerpers als Rodarte, Thom Browne, Jil Sander, Proenza Schouler. Een van de grootste overwinningen van Paris was het jawoord van Rei Kawakubo, ontwerpster van Comme des Garçons, voor het afstaan van een aantal kledingstukken.
De Arnhem Mode Biënnale duurt tot 6 juli.
