Michael Barnaart van Bergen @ OBJECT Rotterdam

Michael Barnaart van Bergen presents comfortable knitted dresses with graphic design at OBJECT Rotterdam.

As I showed you in my sneak preview of the design fair I was eager to see his dresses with my own eye and to touch them.

Michael decorated one of the cabins of the historic cruise ship SS Rotterdam. He presents here his pieces of art, that are produced in limited editions. His work can be seen on the street but also in musea.
Like the Mondrian dress, which was on display at the Barbican Art Gallery in Londen as part of the exhibition The Vulgar, Fashion redefined. And from the 3rd of March to be seen at the Belvedere Museum Winterpalais in Vienna, Austria.

The dresses have a comfortable touch and at some dresses the skirt part is double knitted for better fitting but also because the design isn't printed but knitted.

Besides his dresses he created also these broches.

The design fair OBJECT Rotterdam is open until the 12th of February!
