FASHIONCLASH

15/12/2025

Among the standout elements of this year’s festival was the campaign artfully developed by ULKUHAN, which sought to question and redefine notions of identity and authorship in an age characterized by digital creation. This campaign is a compelling blend of fashion, digital technology, and critical design.

Last November, the International and Multidisciplinary FASHIONCLASH Festival triumphantly returned for its 17th edition, taking place across various interesting locations throughout Maastricht. FAS…

Hoe het verhaal over Fashion Clash vertellen? Zal ik het ‘aanvliegen’ vanuit de verschillende invalshoeken, theaterdisciplines en maatschappelijke onderwerpen? Ofwel benaderen vanuit eigenheid, liefde voor mode, kwaliteit om te doen, mode voor een dialoog. Hoewel het woord Clash een andere suggestie wekt, heb ik vooral aandacht en persoonlijke ontmoetingen ervaren bij het festival.

Today it’s the Day of the Volunteer (Dag van de Vrijwilliger) - Netherlands national day of the volunteers.💕

We would like to thank our volunteers as without them the festival would not be the same. As a community driven organization, FASHIONCLASH can only coexist with support of its community. Many of the volunteers have been there since the beginning. Each festival edition they play a pivotal role to make the festival as smooth as possible and are the faces behind the scenes or front of the scenes welcoming guests.

Big THANKS to all 💕❤️💗

🔵 WE STAND TOGETHER IN POWER 🔵

The FASHIONCLASH Festival 2025 Afterparty transformed Dans-en partycentrum Bernaards into an interdisciplinary playground of community, expression, and togetherness on Saturday, November 15.

More than just a celebration, this year's afterparty was a co-creative platform where music, fashion, performance, and visual art collided. In collaboration with Yorvique Macaay, Neele Kamerbeek, Laisy de Andrade, and designer Jessie Romkens, we created an unforgettable night united in blue. 💙

The energy was electric: ✨ Pole dancing by Bente Kruger ✨ Rap performance by Jesse Snel
✨ Performances born from our pre-event workshops in fashion-making, movement, and voice ✨ A community dressed head-to-toe in blue, standing together in power

From the workshop studio to the dance floor, this was co-creation in action — proof that fashion, art, and community are strongest when built together.

FASHIONCLASH Festival 2025 has proven itself a turning point in European fashion film, defined by outspoken, genre-bending works that centre feminist rage, q***r voices, and bodily transformation. This year’s films mark a decisive shift: not fashion as spectacle, but fashion as political cinema.

Trigger Warning: This article discusses films that include themes of gender-based violence, self-harm, bodily transformation, blood, horror and gore imagery, ritualistic violence, religious symbolism, and q***rphobic behaviour. While graphic details are not described, some content may be disturbing....

Due to its open-call nature and proud championing of alternative forms of self-expression, FASHIONCLASH again cements itself as a must-attend for those seeking an alternative viewpoint on the fashion industry, an angle that isn’t afraid to put the future front and centre, and positions the present day as the ultimate reference point.

With the 17th edition of the FASHIONCLASH Festival officially wrapped, it’s safe to say that the annual event continues to stay true to its ethos of championing unique expressions of creativity – and the beauty that arises from co-creation. The latest installment took place over three days from ...

Most importantly, the Maastricht–based festival gives artists what we so often forget is the most important: a voice and a space to communicate. Talent can be found everywhere—not only in Paris, London, Milan, or New York, as we are often led to believe—but opportunities are not. That’s why events like the Fashionclash Festival should be applauded and cherished, as they showcase the richness of creativity beyond the usual fashion capitals while celebrating the bold, diverse visions that might otherwise go unseen.
