Welcome to Unzip

Welcome to Unzip – a Warehouse podcast in which we unpack different perspectives on fashion. Instead of focusing on fashion as a commercial system and on garments as commodities, we’ll be exploring alternative approaches towards fashion. Think of fashion from an embodied state of being, as a political statement and the daily practice of wearing clothes.
By highlighting the potential of the many forms of fashion that go beyond mainstream commercial fashion we question the dominant industry and hopefully in the end, decentralize it.
We’re inviting people and practices we admire and want to know more about, but also ones we might not fully understand and have a lot of questions about.

So, what can you expect from the first episodes? Together with makers, writers, wearers and observers we’ll be looking at the role of garments, produced, published, seen and worn as a form of protest. We’ll be talking about non-conforming bodies and how certain communities are creating space for themselves. And we’ll be exploring textile as a medium for publishing.

Unzip is hosted by Chinouk Filique de Miranda [ @chinoukfilique ]
