'Synergy of art & fashion' charity exhibition

Posted 14 February 2011

Russia’s answer to Colette, the Moscovite concept store Cara & Co has given carte blanche to 11 international designers – Tim Van Steenbergen, Jean-Paul Knott, Christophe Coppens, Akira Isogawa, Casey Vidalenc, Queene and Belle, Tzuri Gueta, Anne Valerie Hash, Charlie Le Mindu and the luxury leather goods brand Delvaux by Véronique Branquinho – to create unique fashion pieces for an exhibition and charity auction. First exhibited under the banner ‘Synergy of Art & Fashion’ at the Vendôme Luxury trade fair during fashion week 4-7 March, and with art direction by the US sculptor Sean McGinnis, the exhibition will then travel to Moscow, Sydney, Seoul, Shanghai and Berlin before the creations are finally auctioned off, with all proceeds going to The Sound World foundation, which helps deaf children in Russia.
Fri 4-Mon 7 Mar, 9am-7pm. Vendôme Luxury, 228 rue de Rivoli, 1st. www.vendomeluxurytradeshow.com/
