In this episode we explore how garments can act as a medium for publishing and function as site for critical questioning. In fashion media, we often interact with fashion through looking at images of garments or reading text about them. This form of interaction can in some ways, attribute in an alienated and disembodied discourse around fashion. So, what happens when we start publishing through textile, through the garment, worn on a body? Can we ‘read’ fashion differently when we interact with the material physically. Together with Anouk Beckers [ @anouksbeckers ] and Ricarda Bigolin [ @ricardabg  ] we talk about how the intersection between garments, text, and the embodied experience or the performance of wearing narratives, takes shape within their respective practices.

This episode focuses on the commodification of non-conforming communities and how identity politics are drawn out through the diversity trope.

We sit down with Julius Thissen [@juliusthissen], Pernilla Ellens [@pernilla.ellens] and Chet Bugter [@chetjulius] to discuss their activistic and artistic practices, their personal experiences in being part of specific counter cultures and their aim to create space for these communities. 

We discuss how the fashion industry has always looked towards subcultural styles and where these subversive looks in fact find their origin. What happens when these looks, garments and specific ways of styling, that are meaningful for these various communities, are presented as timely trends. What are the effects when these are adopted by celebrities?

We question if there is a ‘right’ way for subcultures to seep into ‘mainstream culture’ through wider known or popular socio-cultural events, such as Pride, and talk about the effect and implications for marginalized communities as their visual cues are embraced by a wider audience.

This episode focuses on fashion as a tool for resistance and the role that garments produced, published, seen and worn, have in protesting. We sit down with Andre Chehade Barroux  [ @andrechehade ] and Hanka van der Voet  [ @hankavdvoet ] and dive into their fashion practices. We question if forms of protest can ever be aesthetic, explore the difference between fashion and garments in protest, and how certain communities utilise garments as tool for protest.

Welcome to Unzip – a Warehouse podcast in which we unpack different perspectives on fashion. Instead of focusing on fashion as a commercial system and on garments as commodities, we’ll be exploring alternative approaches towards fashion. Think of fashion from an embodied state of being, as a political statement and the daily practice of wearing clothes.
By highlighting the potential of the many forms of fashion that go beyond mainstream commercial fashion we question the dominant industry and hopefully in the end, decentralize it.
We’re inviting people and practices we admire and want to know more about, but also ones we might not fully understand and have a lot of questions about.

So, what can you expect from the first episodes? Together with makers, writers, wearers and observers we’ll be looking at the role of garments, produced, published, seen and worn as a form of protest. We’ll be talking about non-conforming bodies and how certain communities are creating space for themselves. And we’ll be exploring textile as a medium for publishing.
