First show under
the direction of Craig Green - Livestream on dieangewandte.at
The
Show Modeklasse 2024 will take place on Thursday, June 6, 2024 in the Atrium of the University of Applied Arts Vienna.
At the end of the academic year, the fashion design students will present their work on the runway and the six graduates will
show their final collections.
Craig Green encourages fearless work and is looking
forward to his first show: For the first time, Craig Green is responsible for the Show Modeklasse 2024. The British
designer took up his professorship at the Angewandte in October 2023 and explains his approach: "My approach in leading the
Fashion department is centered on the belief that the future of human-led innovation lies not only in embracing technology,
but also in understanding that genuinely original ideas stem from physical craftsmanship and hands-on interaction with materials.
Our responsibility as educators is to encourage creative thinking by empowering our students with these necessary skills to
express ideas and explore concepts freely.” Green is very much looking forward to the show and understands his teaching role
as an encouragement to work fearlessly: “With the aim to push innovation and originality in fashion design, always encouraging
fearless work while consistently advocating for bold experimentation and new ways of creating and presenting. My team and
I are proud to present the work from the talented 1st, 2nd, 3rd and Diploma year students of the fashion department."
International
jury of experts evaluates diploma collections: This year, six graduates will complete their studies at the Angewandte
and present their collections to the public at the
Show Modeklasse 2024. The work of the graduates will be evaluated
by an international jury of industry experts. In addition to the university's internal jury, the fashion department invited
Simon Chilvers (freelance journalist and stylist, London), Lulu Kennedy (founder of Fashion East, London) and Serge Carreira
(head of Emerging Brands Initiative at the Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode, Paris) as members of this year’s
diploma jury.
Two prizes for six graduates: The six designers of this year’s graduating class are:
Martyna Bierut, Alissa Herbig, Yuliya Hlazun, Viola Kollar, Oliver Kuzma, and Pouran Parvizi. One of them can look forward
to receiving prize money of 5,000 € for the RONDO Fashion Award 2024 powered by Polestar as well as the publication
of a fashion spread in RONDO. THE MALL Wien Mitte Award is another prize that honours a promising designer for their
outstanding work with an award worth 2,500 €. The winners will be announced and the awards presented during the Show Modeklasse
