It seems there are unlimited possibilities when it comes to designing clothes, because anything goes for some fashion designers. If you want to see these endless fashion style possibilities come to life then the exhibit of Hussein Chalayan currently being held at the UK Design Museum is the place to visit. The designer uses a combination of philosophies crossing unlikely disciplines.
Have you ever thought of architecture influencing dress designs? Can you imagine furniture becoming garments? Those are the kinds of unusual concepts brought to life at the UK exhibit. Your white t-shirts can take on a whole new meaning if any of these creative ideas permeate everyday wear. At the Hussein Chalayan exhibit you will find dresses with 15,000 LED lights sewn on the fabric or moving lasers incorporated into the design. Fashion that lights up is fascinating and is intended to make people think outside the traditional fashion design box.

Hussein Chalayan has received the honour of being named the ‘British Designer of the Year’ twice. He is known for innovative concepts that extend far beyond normal design boundaries. His fashion designs borrow from architecture, philosophy, science, and technology to name a few disciplines. Anything goes in the futuristic styles which is proven by the exhibit running through May 17, 2009 at the UK Design Museum.

Though we all need work wear including polo shirts and sweatshirts, it is fascinating to look at the creative styles which fashion designers produce. They test the bounds of imagination even if impractical for most people to consider ever wearing. Hussein Chalayan is involved in a variety of projects including art and film. The fashion exhibit covers fifteen years of designs. So if you need to pique your creative sense, this exhibit is a great place to start.
