Hussein Chalayan, Politics and Fashion | After Words

Part of the After Words project, SHOWstudio fashion content editor M-C Hill’s video essay looks at key political moments in Hussein Chalayan’s legendary A/W 00 presentation and explains why political voices in fashion matter. To speak out against anti-immigration in 2003, Nick Knight wrote a script for a radical film that combined politics and fashion. After Words confronts the contradictions of prejudice within globalisation featuring clothes from Hussein Chalayan’s A/W 00 collection. Chalayan drew influences from refugees forced to leave their homes, taking only what they could carry. After Words promotes a better Britain that embraces immigrants with openness, dignity and humanity. Visit SHOWstudio: https://www.showstudio.com/projects/f...
