Chalayan's fashion is a perfect hybrid product created by careful selection from the strict interpretative variables of a profession that is founded on technical precision and intellectual rigor. The exhibition has no precise chronology except that it starts from 1993 and a diploma collection at the prestigious Central Saint Martins in London that immediately brought him to the attention of those in the business when his Buried Dresses became key to the contemporary concept of beauty. It was a legendary collection revealing the expert hand of an alchemist, and he managed to bring a touch of criticism to an Eldorado that was churning out names that still matter in contemporary fashion.


Chalayan's fashion is the perfectly hybrid product created by carefully picking from the strict interpretative variables of a profession that is founded on technical precision and intellectual rigor.

Centred firmly on the concept of hybrid cultures, Chalayan's fashion and exhibition sum up with a model of his Floating Dress, decorated with crystal pollens that fluctuate and reconfigure, destabilising the inertia of many geographies in contemporary style.
