  Fashion ephemera - from catalogs and invitations to press releases - have long been overlooked by the fashion industry. This books redresses the balance, putting these objects center stage and focusing on the wider creative practice of contemporary fashion designers. Fashion ephemera are considered not as disposable promotional devices, but as windows into hidden networks of collaboration and inspiration. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, Fashion Remains explores the unseen and privately circulated fashion ephemera produced by today's most prominent international fashion designers. Showcasing a unique archive of materials, it focuses on Antwerp's avant-garde fashion scene and takes us from Maison Margiela to Dries Van Noten and Raf Simons.
