VICTOM at FASHIONCLASH Festival 2015

VICTOM is a new brand created by Victor from China and Tom from Belgium. They are both fashion designers based somewhere between Belgium and China. Victor is the chief designer in a men’s wear company, and Tom is teaching fashion design. Together, they decided to join their passion and talent to build the men’s shirt brand – VICTOM. This year, they will present the new collection at designer market of FASHIONCLASH Festival. Get ready to buy these items there!

Like our facebook event of FASHIONCLASH designer market here, you will have the chance to win a gift card for market.

Q&A with designers Tom & Victor

How would you describe your work? 
VICTOM: The collection that will be presented at FASHIONCLASH is a men’s shirt collection mixing the Belgian clean cut with the more baroque Chinese esthetic. This is the first time for our collection to be presented. Hopefully, the audience will appreciate it and encourage us to go further.

Tom: I really like to create and make my design alive. I did a lot of fashion shows, exhibitions, and contests. I get awarded for a few times. The collection that will be presented at FASHIONCLASH is more commercial than what I did before. This is probably influenced by Victor who has more a commercial sense.

Shana Teugels

Today we have the pleasure to introduce you to Shana Teugels, a Belgian contemporary jewelry designer. She will present her work at the exhibition.

Bohemian Rock, Shana Teugels

Hello, Shana! What inspires you in general? 
Nature and everything that’s faking it. 

What place or city do you find inspiring? 
I’d say a toy shop.

What is it like to be a young artist in your city/country? 
It’s fun and frustrating at the same time.

The FASHIONCLASH exhibition is curated under the theme of “Age.” How does your creation relate to this year’s theme? 
I feel like a child playing with different materials and ideas, and some of them refer to me being a young girl. There is no age to creating and playing around.
