Pameran Antwerp Six merayakan 40 tahun pengaruh mode Belgia

Pameran 'Antwerp Six' dibuka Jumat lalu di museum mode MoMu di Antwerp, menandai peringatan 40 tahun kelompok perancang berpengaruh tersebut. Anggota yang masih aktif termasuk Ann Demeulemeester, Dries Van Noten, dan Walter Van Beirendonck menghadiri acara tersebut, berbagi kenangan masa awal mereka. Pameran ini menyoroti asal-usul pemberontakan mereka di Antwerp Academy dan dampaknya yang abadi pada dunia mode global.

Pameran di MoMu menampilkan instalasi yang diciptakan oleh masing-masing perancang, menciptakan kembali dunia khas mereka. Ann Demeulemeester merancang ruangan gelap dengan siluet hitam tinggi di atas platform cermin, membangkitkan suasana cahaya bulan yang dingin. 'Saya menginginkan suasana seperti berada di malam hari, dan siluet-siluet tersebut berdiri di atas air,' ujarnya. Dries Van Noten mengenang masa-masa awal kelompok tersebut di kelas, memberontak melawan gaya konvensional yang terinspirasi dari punk London, di tengah persaingan konstruktif antar teman untuk sukses dengan koleksi dan branding unik mereka. Walter Van Beirendonck, yang setahun lebih senior di akademi bersama Martin Margiela, menekankan penceritaan dan keterlibatan sosial dalam desainnya yang penuh warna dan ceria, yang mempromosikan kebanggaan queer, seks aman, dan antirasisme. 'Keterbatasan hanyalah undangan untuk berpikir berbeda,' tegasnya. Antwerp Six, di bawah arahan pengecer Geert Bruloot, mengendarai truk ke London pada tahun 1987 untuk debut mereka, mengadakan pertunjukan gerilya yang membuat mereka dikeluarkan dari London Fashion Week. Kurator Kaat Debo, Geert Bruloot, dan Romy Cockx mengumpulkan potongan editorial, video, dan artefak perancang, mengontekstualisasikan kebangkitan kelompok tersebut dengan dukungan dari pemerintah sosialis dan produsen lokal. Para hadirin seperti Raf Simons, Pieter Mulier, dan Meryll Rogge memuji pendekatan Antwerp Academy yang tidak mendikte, yang menumbuhkan kemandirian dan ikatan teman sejawat yang kuat yang terus menghasilkan talenta seperti Demna di Gucci dan Matthieu Blazy di Chanel.
