NTU’s Fashion Fictions World Tour is a shop window exhibition trail in Nottingham’s Creative Quarter, to run from 29 March to 22 April 2023. The organisers are looking for venues to showcase prototypes created to represent fictional sustainable fashion worlds, as a way of raising issues of fashion and sustainability in a playful and imaginative way.
Learn OpportunitiesFashion Fictions is an international participatory project led by Dr Amy Twigger Holroyd, Associate Professor of Fashion and Sustainability at Nottingham Trent University's School of Art and Design. Fashion Fictions was founded in 2020 and has already involved hundreds of participants via activities in Nottingham, online, and around the world.
The project brings people together to generate, experience and reflect on engaging fictional visions of alternative fashion cultures and systems. Through these activities, we expand our collective vocabulary of ways that we might live with our clothes and gain new perspectives on challenges, possibilities and pathways for change in the real world.
If you have a street-facing business based in the CQ and you are interested in accommodating a visual, digital or physical exhibit in your shop or office window, please download and read the PDF linked below to find out more.
To register your interest in being involved, please email Dr Amy Twigger Holroyd on amy-twigger.holroyd@ntu.ac.uk
