Taken by Annough Lykin

Art India Gallery in Cooperation with Allure Inc. Fashion Agency are planning a joint art / fashion event.

WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Art and fashion meet in hats. Good hats are art to wear and subsequently many artists love to create fantastic hats. Fashion designers often show an explosion of creativity in hats. Hats turn to fashion with the styling. 

The basic idea of the exhibition is to present hats built by artists and fashion designers together with photos. In the photos is shown a small story around the hat. More details below.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
Artists, fashion designers, builders are invited to submit their hat creations. Fashion- and art-photographers are invited to submit their scenery taken with a hat. The works can be created and taken by the same person or they apply as designer/photographer-team. There is no submission or participation fee. 

WHEN IS THE EVENT?
Exhibition/Sale will be open from June 7th until July 21st.
