Exhibition Fashion on Escher Michelangelo Winklaar in Hotel Des Indes
Official opening of The Fashion Week The Hague. Hotel Des Indes, which has regularly served as a stage for fashion shows in the past, will transform the salon into an elegant catwalk hall for this special occasion. This choice will give a nod to times gone by and mimic a classic fashion show presentation. After the exclusive fashion show, visitors also had the chance to admire Michelangelo Winklaar's work during an exhibition on the second floor of Hotel Des Indes.
​
Michelangelo Winklaar presented his version on the master M.C. Escher with a four-piece couture piece made with a distorted check pattern called Pied de Coq which the designer upcycled from deadstock material from Taiwan. With this, the couturier shows how a single garment can be multifunctional and how the motif supports the illusion in the process.
