Edition Six. Inspired by Amanda Gorman 'The Hill We Climb'
For FURORE Edition Six, designer Elke Baert found inspiration in the powerful performance by Afro-American word artist Amanda Gorman. With her poem ‘The Hill We Climb’ during Joe Biden’s inauguration, Gorman put herself on the international literary map in an almost iconic way. Her means of achieving this – through a big hand gesture and with a distinctively bright outfit – did not just appeal to Elke Baert’s imagination; with her ‘message of unity’ and graceful gestures, Gorman touched the entire world. This makes her nothing less than a woman at the age of influence in Baert’s eyes: a true FURORE woman.
Edition Five. Inspired by Raveel's Garden with Cart to Transport the Sky
For FURORE Edition Five, fashion and art are once again intimately entwined. This time, designer Elke Baert found inspiration in the oeuvre of Belgian painter Roger Raveel (1921 - 2013), whose birth centenary is currently being celebrated with comprehensive retrospectives at both BOZAR and the Roger Raveel Museum.
Edition Four. Inspired by Magritte's Le Beau Monde
Furore Edition Four is the result of a new collaboration with the heirs of the Belgian surrealist painter René Magritte. The collection is a combination of fresh colorways, flowy pleated fabrics and a subtle grid pattern, typical of three of the best-known elements in Magritte's iconography: the curtain, the apple and the clouds.
