40 years ago, the Antwerp Six crashed London Fashion Week uninvited. On the 6th of June, we’re bringing them back. Pairing the Antwerp Six with the Japanese designers they came up alongside. Celebrating the two scenes that gave us deconstruction, wabi sabi, and unique designs that continue to influence international fashion today.
Saturday 6th June will be a showcase of > 2,000 of the best Belgian and Japanese archive pieces from > 30 of the best Known Source dealers.
There will be panel talks with dealers and industry insiders, an archive showcase detailing the innovation each used throughout their design process with archive runway screenings.
This will be a cultural exchange of archive fashion, conversations and people. Dedicated to the everlasting legacy of the legendary Antwerp Six and the most influential Japanese designers.
