Multilogue Moments: Colectivo Malvestidas on ‘Decolonising Decolonisation! / A Decolonizar la Decolonización!', Provocation at The Digital Multilogue on Fashion Education 2023 – De-Fashioning Education, A Critical Thinking and Making Conference

This episode brings you ‘Decolonising Decolonisation!/ A Decolonizar la Decolonización!'– the bi-lingual spoken part of the performance Provocation by Colectivo Malvestidas, at De-Fashioning Education – A Critical Thinking and Making Conference in Berlin – The Digital Multilogue on Fashion Education 2023.

Colectivo Malvestidas was formed in 2016 in Santiago, Chile, by Loreto Martínez (theatre designer, curator and creative producer) and Tamara Poblete (researcher in fashion and dress, curator and cultural manager). The two began to intertwine their interests in dress as a political device. They did this by situating themselves in Latin America and embracing critical theory, feminisms and decolonial practice. They decided to name themselves Colectivo Malvestidas (Poorly dressed Collective) with a focus on the aesthetic and the parodic. Since then, they have developed several projects committed to making visible and developing disruptive and counter-hegemonic discourses in fashion and dress.
