This post contains some snapshots which give an impression of the vernissage party and of the currently running fashion exposition, called Ultramegalore, curated by Belgian model Hannelore Knuts.

Director Kenneth Ramaekers of Het Modemuseum Hasselt (The Fashion Museum Hasselt) has asked Hannelore to assemble an exhibition that gives the visitors a glimpse into her universe that reaches further than just fashion. She turned it into a crystallisation of what motivated and inspired her during her 10 year career as a top model. Hannelore has made a compilation of her favourite designers, photographers, artists and musicians. People she has met along the way, that have inspired her or at least have left an indelible impression on her. Regardless of whether they are ‘in’ or not. She wants to share these impressions the way she collected them. A cluster of encounters, a mass of impacts.She approached her role as curator like a stylist who endlessly combines different brands, second-hand clothes and personal accessories. The exhibition is not a tribute to or a retrospective of ’the model’ Hannelore. Instead it is a confrontational look into her small world, motivated by great things, and vice versa. With her view and approach Hannelore has turned this exposition into a very inspiring fashion experience.

The exposition in Het Modemuseum Hasselt (The Fashion Museum Hasselt) will run until the 6Th June 2010.
