Estonian Design in Motion

​Estonian Design returns to New York. We're hosting a new selection of brands with an exclusive, immersive fashion performance presented by the Estonian Design House. This one-of-a-kind event will showcase 14 talented Estonian designers through a dynamic performance by local performers.

​The creative concept and staging are crafted by Reet Aus – a pioneer of Estonian sustainable fashion, in particular upcycling. As an esteemed fashion designer and environmental activist, Reet Aus has redefined how fashion and sustainability coexist. Mauricio Zelaya, a fashion photographer based in New York City, will be capturing the show as part of the overall concept. 

​In addition to the performance, the event will feature a pop-up collection where attendees can purchase pieces from all the showcased brands. Afterwards, there will be a networking opportunity with drinks, providing a chance to mingle with designers, artists, and fellow fashion enthusiasts.

• ​Reet Aus

​DJ Set by DJ Tiburón @tiburon_dj

​Guest Appearance: Kitty Florentine - a multidisciplinary artist, known for her interactive live performances, filled with beauty, humor, drama and dance. Her music embodies cinematic soundscapes that lay on a hearty bass, led by fairylike vocals emerging from a place deep in the soil. 

​The event will be held at The Canvas 3.0, which is on the lowest level of the Oculus in the South Concourse hallway.
