“FOLD-OUT: Tracing Nordic Fashion Magazines” looks at the networks, collaborations, and creative constellations that have shaped the Nordic fashion scene over the past four decades. Twelve large-format single images drawn from fashion editorials are presented, alongside the original magazine in which it was published. This creates a dialogue between the isolated image and its editorial context, revealing how design, photography and layout intersect. The exhibition questions the mutual dependency between the magazines as active agents and the creation of flourishing eco systems of fashion practitioners. “FOLD-OUT: Tracing Nordic Fashion Magazines” ultimately uncovers a web of dynamic practices, ephemeral gestures, and relational ties that define Nordic fashion and printed culture.

The exhibition is a result of the research project “Nordic Fashion, Printed Culture & Heritage Making”, conducted by Edoardo Ferrari and supported by the Nordic Culture Fund.
