EROTICA (MADONNA’S CELEBRATION TOUR) – RICARDO GOMEZ
The 16th edition of ASVOFF is happening this year from November 7 to November 10 at the Dover Street Market in Paris. The fashion film festival created by Diane Pernet will showcase over four days more than 130 films dedicated to fashion, style, and beauty. From emerging filmmakers to legendary directors from all around the world, they will be evaluated by a selected jury coming from the fashion, film, music, photography, and design scene. Together they will pick the finalists for the best-in-category recognition during the closing night on November 10.
ON GOLDEN DAYS – JAMES J. ROBINSON
This year, the jury members included Michèle Lamy as guest president. Besides her, we can note the presence of Fecal Matter, Matt Lambert, Harry Goaz as well as musician Jay-Jay Johanson. On November 9, ASVOFF will present The Queer Archive curated by Konstantinos Menelaou. This category is to celebrate and explore the intersection of queer identities and fashion. Challenging gender norms, it increases visibility and acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community, providing a space for individuals to express themselves authentically in the industry. On this day, there will be three special judges alongside Konstantinos Menelaou who are Nadya Tolokonnikova, Slava Mogutin and Liz Rosenfeld.
