Fashion forms Opinion
How much opinion do you think a voting on 7 young fashion designers can cause? The opinions vary from expressions of personal closeness with the designer, technical statements of fashion experts to very creative and funny comments about the sketches for the Fashion Award under the theme "Dress up for Mozart – Rock up Rococo!“.

The catalyst for the opinion-forming discussion on fashion is the public voting for the 7 Selected of the Triumph International Fashion Award 2006.

"The voting is without obligation for the voters to post their opinion or justification for their choice. Latest since Harry Frankfurt’s philosophical analysis of "Bullshit" we know that not every opinion is meaningful so sometimes it is better to say nothing. Under these aspects it is much more astonishing how many participants in the voting support their opinion with technical arguments or post sometimes simply funny statements." Dr. Karin Sawetz, publisher fashionoffice.org

At this time the Austrian-American designer Kirsten Hiller has got the most statements. No other designs of the 7 Selected have been so often attributed with the word "sexy". Her work “rocks the best”. Currently around 20 percent of all statements are made for Kirsten Hiller on
fashionoffice.org/triumph.

Even funny confrontations such as "Some of the others look like they just got out of a fight with a mad dog” are used by users to support their opinion on their favoured designer.

Everything can be found in the statements: greetings of the family and friends who live in a distant country and use this voting to stay in touch with one of the 7 Selected, professional statements which could be made by a teacher, comments which concern the work or the designer... Who knows?

The public voting for the selection of the 3 Finalists takes place on fashionoffice.org/triumph until 20th July 2006.
