30 sec. sample

(Music during the show have been short samples
of music of various artists - selection made by Klaus)

How this kind of fashion show developed:

After some easily improvised fashion shows
in locations at or near to FABRIKNEU

like
 » MODE IM HOF
and
 » KREUZBERG FASHION
(all 1973 - 1974)

Claudia tried some more places too
to present her fashion in a more
narrative or location inspired way
as she organized a billiard room to show

 » BILLIARD -SKODAMODE IM ATRIUM
also in 1973.

In 1975 Claudia started to set up
bigger fashion events in FABRIKNEU

The second show of this kind she named
SHAKE YOUR HIPS.(complete version »HERE)
Claudia's husband - the sculptor
 »JÜRGEN SKODA
built a tropical island
in the large FABRIKNEU media room
located in the factory building's attic.

Here the models showed
Claudia's 1976 collection
in front of an excited audience
to a wild mixture of 50s and 60s music.

The concept of combining fashion, art
and music selected by  » KLAUS,.
was now Claudia's favorite approach - until today.

This film was part of the multimedia show

 »DRESSED TO THRILL

to honour Claudia's live achievment
as a fashion designer at
Kunstbibliothek of Kunstforum Berlin 2021
