Discover our new exhibition and lectures through artists and designers who resonate with the social affiliation they have with their communities; their words and actions confidently declare that inclusion can be stylish too.

Scroll down to read our stories that prove that one’s identity is more than a collection of clothes or images; more than the insular efforts to be exclusive.

POWERED BY: Balenciaga ✨ As founder of Vetement

POWERED BY: Balenciaga ✨

As founder of Vetements and the current Creative Director of Balenciaga (@balenciaga), Demna Gvasalia’s mark on the last decade is undeniable. Moving between street and luxury, Demna (@demnagvasalia) quickly veered into anti-fashion territory, earning a reputation as a rebel. His designs speak to the relevancy fashion always craves and puts him at the head of the current cycle in which street informs high fashion.

Visit our exhibition ‘Wear The Right Thing’ in The Gallery at VCUarts Qatar to view garments under the creative direction of Demna Gvasalia from the Balenciaga archives 😍 Curated by @julieboukobza and @fashion_film_fetish. Featuring @jamelshabazz, @mohamedbourouissa and @sarasadikofficiel. With @balenciaga 💜

The garments selected for this exhibition are an effort to best represent the influence Balenciaga has had on fashion, as well as form a dialogue with the works of the three talented artists alongside whom the garments are displayed ✨

We are very grateful to Balenciaga Paris for their support and for giving us the opportunity to display these pieces in our Gallery in Doha 🤍✨
