MOḌA: Moroccan fashion statements = MOḌA : iqrārāt al-mūḍah al-Maghribīyah

Abstract

"In the Western world, fashion has traditionally been associated with progress and innovation. For many years, it was therefore seen in direct opposition to non-Western clothing, which is often associated with traditions and crafts. In MOḌA—Moroccan Fashion Statements, curators Ninke Bloemberg and Zineb Seghrouchni show that this one-sided understanding of fashion is a thing of the past. MODA brought together more than forty game changers from Morocco and the Moroccan diaspora in the Netherlands: they redefine fashion, each from a unique perspective but connected by their relationship to fashion, the creative process and Morocco. MOḌA—Moroccan Fashion Statements is the result of a collaboration between DAR Cultural Agency and Centraal Museum"-- Provided by publisher.
