Mode mit Relevanz
Mit der Rückkehr zum ursprünglichen Selbst setzten sich zwei Kollektionen auseinander.
Stefan Uhr will in seiner Studienarbeit „Atra Vena – An Image Rehearsal Therapy“ die Kontrolle über seine Träume und sein Leben zurückgewinnen, Niclas Hasemann plädiert in seiner Bachelorarbeit „Wunderheiler“ für mehr Empathie und Gemeinschaft in unserer Gesellschaft. Luting Chen hat in ihrer Masterarbeit ein Größensystem entwickelt, mit dem Kleidung flexibel an die sich verändernden Körpermaße von Männern unterschiedlichen Alters angepasst werden kann.

Atra Vena – An Image Rehearsal Therapy
Stefan Uhr hat sich in seinen bisherigen Kollektionen mit der Rückkehr zum ursprünglichen Selbst beschäftigt. So auch in der Kollektion „Atra Vena – An Image Rehearsal Therapy“.
Die Kollektion verarbeitet die Angst, dass aufgrund einer Fettstoffwechselerkrankung die Adern nach und nach verstopfen und das Herz eines Tages aufhört zu schlagen. Mit der „Imagery Rehearsal Therapy“ werden die für den Träumenden belastenden Szenen bewusst wahrgenommen, gestrichen und durch Positives ersetzt. Im Fall von Stefan Uhr dient die Umsetzung in Textilien dazu, dem Träumenden die Angst zu nehmen und die Kontrolle über seine Träume und sein Leben zurückzugewinnen.

Wunderheiler
Inspiriert vom Werk der Philosophin Simone Weil erkunden die Kollektion und der Film „Wunderheiler“ die Begriffe Rationalität, Spiritualität und die Räume dazwischen. Das Projekt ist eine sanfte Einladung, sich auf vielfältigere Formen des Wissens einzulassen. Die Akzeptanz der eigenen Fehlbarkeit ist ein erster Schritt auf dem Weg zu mehr Empathie und Gemeinschaft – Voraussetzungen für die Heilung der individuellen und gesellschaftlichen Krankheiten unserer Zeit. Schließlich hängt die Menschlichkeit eines jeden von der Menschlichkeit der anderen ab. Handwerkliche Techniken wie Handweben, Drucken oder die traditionelle Färbemethode Kakishibu werden behutsam eingesetzt und geben Impulse, sich auf das Ungewisse einzulassen.

Timeless
Luting Chen hat ein neues flexibles Größensystem für Männermode entwickelt. Damit kann ein Kleidungsstück flexibel an die sich verändernden Körpermaße von Männern unterschiedlichen Alters angepasst werden. Ziel ist es, die Mode inklusiver und nachhaltiger zu machen, ihre Lebensdauer zu verlängern und die Abfallmenge in der Modeindustrie aufgrund falscher Größen zu reduzieren.
Grundlage sind Studien über die Entwicklung der Körperform und der Fettverteilung bei Männern im Alter von 25 bis 84 Jahren. Insbesondere der Brust- und Taillenumfang von Männern So variiert je nach Alter erheblich. Für die wichtigsten Kategorien der Herrenbekleidung wie Anzüge, Hosen und Hemden werden Lösungen wie Falten und Abnäher oder Hosen mit verstellbarem Bund vorgeschlagen.

European Fashion Award FASH 2016 Awarded to Seven Promising Young Designers
At the start of Berlin Fashion Week, seven promising young designers were awarded the European Fashion Award FASH 2016. The awards, valued at EUR 200,000 in total, were presented in front of 250 guests on Monday evening by the non-profit organization SDBI –Stiftung der Deutschen Bekleidungsindustrie (German Fashion Industry Foundation). The ceremony took place in the impressive halls of Berlin’s Neues Museum, part of the Museum Island UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Shaping Change
Visions for a new era formed the focus of the European Fashion Award FASH 2016’s theme, “Change”. Digital transformation is currently bringing fundamental change to the way fashion is sold, presented, and designed. Online shopping, live streams and Instagram have changed everything. The seven winners of the European Fashion Award FASH 2016 are shaping this change. From demonstrating the potential of purely industrial production to entirely new approaches to sustainable fashion: The creative and technical abilities of the award winners are impressive, and the creative output is fascinating. The award-winning projects focus on concepts exploring fashion’s potential, and have more in common with concept cars than clothing for everyday wear. More

10 Years European Fashion Award
Speech by Tobias Gröber, Chairman
Full Version
Ladies and Gentlemen, dear Winners:
Today marks the 10th presentation of our newcomer designer award, the European Fashion Award FASH. The award started out with modest beginnings and gained a lot of strength along the way.
The non-profit “Stiftung der Deutschen Bekleidungsindustrie” (Germany Fashion Industry Foundation), in short SDBI, was founded in 1978 by Klaus Steilmann, at the time Europe’s largest manufacturer of women’s fashion. When Messe München took over the Modewoche München (Munich Fashion Week) in 1996, we also voluntarily took on the management of SDBI. Until 2004 the foundation provided direct endorsement for a small circle of talented students. There was hardly any public relations activity or follow-up support. In 2004 we tasked Joachim Schirrmacher with the reorganization to better meet the challenges of our increasingly more global, faster and more complex world of fashion. More

Statements
“I have been observing the work of SDBi since its beginnings and in particular since my involvement with the jury in 2011. The evident genuine interest in new international creative talent was always the core value of the SDBI. This makes it inspirational for creatives, jury members and associates alike. Further support for future projects is vital and beneficial for both the industry and the young talent in order to further connect on a continuous basis and prepare for the tough challenges ahead.”
Torsten Hochstetter, Global Creative Director, Puma
“Visions, creativity and passion are the components with which SDBI sets sustainable signals for the future of the otherwise fast-moving fashion world.”
Laudation “Germany – Land of Ideas”

Leading Promotion / 21. May 2013
Distinguished Winners
Several previous winners of our European Fashion Award FASH have been awarded by other contests. For example, Karen Scholz and Joan Tarragó Pampalona (FASH 2007) won 2008 the 1st Prize of the Apolda European Design Award. Melanie Gros (FASH 2008) and Annika Tutsch (FASH 2011) were decorated with a grant by the Wilhelm Lorch Foundation in 2010 and 2011.
But this spring our records were broken. Almost each of our winners of FASH 2013 was nominated for the Baltic Fashion Award. We are very glad that Tanja Schmidt and Philip Rudzinski won this prize in the beginning of May.
In addition, the successful team from the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Hannover recently was presented as one promotional prize winner in the category creation by Wilhelm Lorch Foundation. Besides the two of them, our winners Tim Labenda and Florian Wowretzko were also decorated with grants by the Wilhelm Lorch Foundation. Congratulations to all of them!
The team of SDBI is very pleased that its leading promotion is bearing such fruit. Maybe we can celebrate another success on July 3rd: Ciolacu Ioana Miron from Romania (2nd prize FASH 2011) has been nominated by Stella McCartney as Designer for Tomorrow.
