ARRRGH! Monsters in Fashion Paris

Pandemonia attends the opening of Arrrgh! Monsters in Fashion
13 February to 7 April 2013
Gaite Lyrique, Paris



Based on an original idea by Vassilis Zidianakis, ARRRGH! Monsters in Fashion is the first international exhibition on character design in fashion and art. Characters are abstract, reduced figures with a strong anthropomorphic appeal and bold graphical silhouette. Participating designers and artists reshape the human body and reveal a new universe full of dreams, nightmares and hybrid creatures.
