The KORONDI 2:0 project is an excellent example of the modern interpretation of Hungarian folk art motifs and techniques through the language of contemporary fashion. We are proud of our students who have used their talent and creativity to create unique and innovative pieces. This exhibition not only showcases the talent of our students, but also celebrates the rich heritage of Hungarian folk art. We hope that visitors to the exhibition will be inspired by the costumes and discover the beauty and value of Hungarian folk art.”

The exhibition presents a wide range of garments made during the project, from traditional motifs to more daring and innovative pieces.

The exhibited pieces were previously on display at the May fashion show, where students presented the garments themselves, bringing to life the heritage of Hungarian folk art in the context of modern fashion.
