Fashion and Accessories: a book and a seminar

Fashion and Accessories was the topical research theme of the modelectoraat for 2006 and 2007. This theme was a point of departure for a research workshop with Fashion master students given by Drs Nanda van den Berg and Professor José Teunissen at ArtEZ.
From out these results the lectoraat developed a concept for the book Fashion and Accessories on the history and meaning of accessories. A international board of writers was invited to participate which included Gilles Lipovetsky, Nanda van den Berg, Luca Marchetti and others.

At the 2nd of June  2007 Fashion and Accessories was launched at the Arnhem Fashion Biennale during an international seminar. In this programme Luca Marchetti, Virginie Vallon, David Shah, Naomi Filmer, Clare Sauro and José Teunissen held a presentation.
