A series of fashion-themed documentary shorts will be screened at 1971 Design Space on Sharjah’s Flag Island as part of the Defashstructed Film: Fashion Films Between Image And Meaning programme, from Wednesday, October 7.
The shorts, by designers and filmmakers from around the world, explore and apply notions of deconstruction in the visuals and narratives.
The line-up includes A Little Bit Eternal by Danielle Levitt, an intimate portrait of designer Rick Owen and his wife and muse Michele Lamy; and Dazed X Versus Versace by Marie Schuller, which made its debut during Vaccarello's SS15 collection for Vesus Versace at New York Fashion Week.
• The programme, held in collaboration with Cinema Akil and part of the De.Fash.Struction exhibition curated by Khulood Thani, runs until December 26. Visit www.facebook.com/defashstructuredfilm for the full schedule.
