Designer exhibits turn couture into an experience
Implications - Although the catwalk offers an exciting and engaging experience for fashion consumers, it's such a brief affair that the magic associated with a great runway show is often quickly forgotten. For designers who want to really stick in the consumer mindset, however, an option is to take a cue from historic fashion exhibits and design shows and create a limited-time exhibit of their own. This way, the designer's best works can be showcased in a way that captivates and immerses the consumer in an unparalleled fashion experience.
