CLOSE AND FAR
What happens when what is closest to us meets something coming from entirely different dimensions?
Come experience a fashion performance built on the fascinating contrast of two distinct universes.
CLOSE (Light, Touch & Home)
The first half of the evening welcomes you in a soft, bright, and delicate tone. Students from the Brno SSUD and designer Nela Šulová with her brand HELL.IX open up the theme of sustainability through sensitive recycling, tangible touch, and deep grounding in natural principles.
FAR (Darkness, Technology & Artificiality)
Then, however, the stage plunges into shadow. The second, dark, and raw face of the evening arrives, brought by our guests from Hungary. We step into a world of artificial structures, algorithmic visions, silicone textures, and industrial coldness, where fashion becomes a technological experiment.
Two worlds meeting on a single platform to showcase the future of design in all its forms.

FASHION PERFORMANCE
collection: FAKE diamonds
Atelier IWOLA (Tóth Imola)
Moravian Square
Designer Imola Tóth’s brand Atelier Iwola presents a captivating collection titled FAKE DIAMONDS, pushing the boundaries of material exploration. Her work is built on luxurious duchesse satin printed with a two-component liquid silicone and finished with acrylic painting. The cornerstone of this innovative technique involves pressing jewelry and various objects directly into the wet, liquid silicone. Once cured, these elements leave behind intricate negative imprints, creating striking, textured surfaces full of depth and optical illusions.

Claudia Mileji
Moravian Square
The CLAUDIA MILEJI project offers a fascinating glimpse into the intersection of human intuition and modern technology. Utilizing an experimental design software built as a specialized Excel macro, it generates unique two-dimensional concepts based on a predefined algorithm. The program cleverly combines organic (“human”) and polygonal (“robotic”) shapes, laying the groundwork for entirely original visual visions at the crossroads of mathematics and art. The result is a seamless symbiosis of algorithmic creation and human creativity.
projekt: cumulative past…
Nóra Bokanyi
Moravian Square
Textile designer and Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design graduate Nóra Bokányi focuses deeply on circularity, sustainability, and bridging modern design with the heritage of folk traditions. Her project Cumulative past… directly addresses contemporary overconsumption and waste. It explores why we have lost the ability to keep textile items in circulation as naturally as was done in traditional peasant culture. Through recycling, she revives waste materials and textiles that are in a condition too poor for standard donation. By dismantling, layering, and stitching them together, she creates brand-new, reinforced textile surfaces used to craft original outer garments. Her work strongly emphasizes respect for material values and points the way toward a sustainable, circular lifestyle.

Students of SSUD & HELL.IX
Moravian Square
The first half of the evening, titled CLOSE, belongs to the rising generation of talented designers from the Brno School of Art and Design (SSUD) and HELL.IX brand. Their collections present a deeply rooted, bright, and tangible vision of sustainable fashion. Rather than mass production, they focus on craftsmanship, natural materials, recycling, and original experimentation.
The student runway showcases several fascinating dimensions: Laser Cutting & Innovative Structures; Denim Upcycling; Knitwear, Jackets & Zero-Waste; 3D Printing
CONCERT
Concert nivVa
NIVVA
Moravian Square
NIVVA is a Prague-based audiovisual project that combines music with digital technology. Using a virtual 3D avatar, NIVVA explores how technology shapes perception, identity and emotions. Musically, NIVVA fuses pop, electronic, ambient and experimental influences.
