25 Years of Spijkers en Spijkers: Fashion as a Constructed Identity at State of Fashion

Fashion is so much more than a fleeting trend. It is a form of art, a reflection of the times, and a powerful construction of identity. No one understands this better than the Dutch designer duo Spijkers en Spijkers. This year they are celebrating their 25th anniversary, and they are marking this milestone in a very special way with an impressive contribution to State of Fashion.

At BINK, we are incredibly proud that our Impress mannequins from our rental service are playing a supporting role in this anniversary presentation.

in short:

The iconic designer duo Spijkers en Spijkers is celebrating their 25th anniversary at State of Fashion with the exhibition '25 Years of Constructed Identity'. BINK is a proud partner of this silver jubilee. Our abstract Impress mannequins from the rental service take the stage to perfectly showcase the sisters' architectural designs. ​

 

A silver jubilee with depth

For a quarter of a century, sisters Truus and Riet Spijkers have been known for their graphic lines, bold silhouettes, and their ability to perfectly capture the zeitgeist. Their anniversary centers around '25 Years of Constructed Identity'. With this theme, they align seamlessly with the philosophy of State of Fashion. Together, they demonstrate how clothing functions as an extension of who we are and how we relate to the world around us.


It is an ode to sustainability, craftsmanship, and the deeper meaning of fashion. This vision connects perfectly with the core values of BINK.

The perfect match: Our Impress collection in the spotlight

For a multi-layered exhibition like that of Spijkers en Spijkers, the presentation is crucial. The clothing should not just be displayed, the soul of the design must truly come to life. That is why the duo chose the Impress mannequins from the BINK rental service.

The Impress collection is known for its abstract elegance, minimalist shapes, and powerful appearance. They do not distract from the fashion, but rather enhance the architectural shapes and unique character of the Spijkers en Spijkers designs.

Flexibility and sustainability via the BINK rental service

Large-scale events and temporary exhibitions require flexibility. Our rental service offers designers and curators the opportunity to work with premium, top-quality mannequins without having to invest permanently in a fixed collection. Furthermore, reuse through rental fits perfectly within the sustainable transition that State of Fashion actively promotes.
