It was an honour to work with Antwerp fashion designer Bruno Pieters on his campaign image for his upcoming exhibition '(Behind) the Clothes.' in Antwerp, opening June 3! (2016)
There are two parts to the exhibition: ’The Clothes’ and ‘Behind the Clothes’.
The Clothes and Behind the clothes.
Behind the clothes – literally and figuratively – Pieters presents a series of portrait photographs of over 40 people involved in the Belgian fashion making process here in Antwerp.
The series includes portraits of Etienne Debruyne, a Belgian Flax producer; Raymond Libeert CEO of Libeco – one of the few surviving manufacturers of linen in Belgium; and Rosalinde Heerkens and Aurélie Callewaert of Trois Quarts – Antwerp’s renowned pattern designer duo.
The series also showcases Fashion creatives and image makers including photographer Alex Salinas; make-up artist Gina Van den Bergh; stylist Ilja de Weerdt; and model Anouck Lepère.
In short, a journey behind the clothes showcases 40 members of the creative/production team, from the raw material to the ad campaign, and every talent along the way.
