MOME Fashion Show was back after a three-year hiatus

Date: 2022.11.17
What inspires the textile and fashion designers of the future? What form and colour schemes does the new designer generation use in their latest works? The fashion show, organised under the direction of head of MOME’s Fashion and Textile Design MA and founder of KELE Clothing Ildikó Kele and our teacher Dóra Tomcsányi, once again gave a glimpse into the creative work at the Fashion and Textile Design MA of Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design.

On 3 November 2022, the unique show featured diploma works by Textile Design BA as well as Fashion and Textile Design MA students from the past 3 years.  

The MOME Fashion Show is designed to provide the university’s fashion and textile design students with the opportunity to debut their creations and give the wider public an insight into the various subjects that the future designer generation is interested in. In line with the best practice of major international fashion schools, the grand fashion show and exhibition was put on to demonstrate the workings of the mind of young Hungarian fashion talents.  

This year too, both the graduating BA and MA students presented their thematic collections following the traditions. The MOME Fashion Show drew a great deal of attention and a full house, and hundreds of visitors were able to see the latest creations. In addition to the general public, the professional partners of the university, representatives of the fashion industry, and members of the professional press also attended the event, giving students the opportunity to build personal ties with important textile and fashion industry players and the press.  

MOME’s Textile Design MA and its predecessor have been training outstanding professionals for nearly 110 years, many of whom receive international accolades and go on to become sought-after designers. Our alumni include acclaimed textile and fashion industry professionals such as Noémi Ferenczy, Barbara Léber, Bori Tóth, Anikó Manier Németh, Dóra Konsánszky, Réka Vágó, Emília Anda, András Tóth, Attila Godena-Juhász and Eszter Füzes, Dalma Dévényi, Tibor Kiss and so on. After graduation, students can join major global labels including Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Chloé, Balenciaga, Vetements, Acne Studios, Proenza Schooler, Marc Cain, Adidas, Nike, Burton or North Face, as well as Hungarian fashion brands such as Nanushka, Aeron, Nubu, Tomcsányi or The Four.

The University of the Future initiative is a key focus this year, aimed at MOME’s comprehensive revitalisation. Thanks to persistent efforts over recent months, working groups have developed a detailed implementation plan for the University of the Future programme, a.k.a. the “Three Schools model”, which was unanimously accepted in December 2023. The process has now reached a new milestone: on 18 July, the Senate has pledged its support for the plan, paving the way for continued collaborative work to implement the new structure by next winter and to transform MOME into one of Europe's leading design higher education institutions.

Our University has been invited to exhibit at one of the world's most prestigious digital art festivals, the Ars Electronica 2024. Each year, the Campus series of the long-standing festival presents an art university. This year's exhibition is organised in collaboration with the University of Linz, and will feature outstanding student diploma works from recent years in Linz's main square selected by curators Judit Eszter Kárpáti, Esteban de la Torre, and Ágoston Nagy.

A new symbol has been added to the range of memorabilia that members of the MOME community can receive as they reach various milestones in their university careers. This new emblem, which reinforces a sense of belonging, is a turned and machined bronze item with a polished surface based on the letter ‘O’ in MOME’s logo. Designed by MOME MA teacher Krisztián Ádám at the initiative of Rector József Fülöp, this symbol will be awarded to all graduates at all levels along with the diplomas starting in 2024.
