Milan Tanedjikov (Concordia University) and six LaSalle College students.
A Material Culture & Fashion Exhibit
June 6 and 7
The garments are part of a collection, titled Odesza, designed by six LaSalle College students under the artistic direction of Milan Tanedjikov. The collection: an artisanal Montreal-based clothing collection that is part of the slow-fashion movement. The clothes are made by hand with environmentally friendly material and workers are paid fair wages. The students were motivated by the desire to move away from unethical clothing manufacturing practices and to design a collection that re-envisions Montreal’s material culture and fashion legacy.
