Day 9 @ MBFWA: Matisse, Liselore Frowijn, MAYN, Byfield, Christopher & Spijkers en Spijkers

Yesterday was the ninth day of Mercedes-Benz FashionWeek Amsterdam.

Caribbean Fashion Spot, MAYN, House of Byfield, Jonathan Christopher and Spijkers en Spijkers took their collections to the catwalk. At the same time the Zalando presents 10 Days Downtown event 'Matisse et la Mode' took place in the Stedelijke Museum.

Fashion and art melted together in the Stedelijke Museum in Amsterdam yesterday. During 'Matisse et la Mode', Liselore Frowijn showcased her collection in combination with the extraordinary art collection by Henri Matisse. This turned into a beautiful interaction between fashion and art. The influence Matisse had on art and fashion was highlighted by an interview between Liselore Frowijn, Milou van Rossum (fashion journalist NRC) and Bart Rutte (curator Stedelijke Museum), which led to very interesting perspectives on the artist.

Press and fashion crowd had a taste of the Caribbean vibe during the Caribbean Fashion Spot show. Fashion designers Atelier Doré, Beatrix Rodriquez, Charu Lochan Das, Gigliola Designs, Heather Jones International and Ms. Ray shared their vision on fashion.

The Amsterdam based fashion brand MAYN was hosted by Vodafone Fashion LAB in the Transformatorhuis. It showed how architecture and clothing can work together by using architectonic elements in their creations.
