THEMATIC FOCUS: FASHION THERAPY

The |FAT| 2013 theme FASHION THERAPY examines the human condition and aspects of the psyche which seek resolve through fashion. Designers and artists are invited to submit their vision and interpretation on how fashion can be used as healing. This year’s theme asks the question: How does fashion impact the human condition – our mental and emotional states?

FASHION THERAPY will be presented April 23 -27, across five days of unique programming based on these five sub-themes: Drama, Craving, Escape, Crisis & Euphoria.
