At this point, Vietnam is looking about as communist as Vichy France. The once repressed society is in the midst of an economic, cultural and artistic resurgence. Leading that charge is perhaps the fashion and arts community in this once poverty stricken country. An exhibit at L’Espace in Hannoi looks at the moments on catwalks everywhere in a vacuum. It is said that these French and Italian photos are some of the most breathtaking photos of catwalk moments in a generation. Photographers Myqua (France) and Max Salvaggio (Italy) look at these moments sans the glaring lights and the adoring crowds to get a fix on the actual beauty and glamor behind runway shows.
The exhibit is set to take place in from May 21 to June 18, L’Espace, 24 Trang Tien, Hanoi.
