The show featured the works of international photographers such as Bruce Weber, Steven Meisel, Patrick Demarchelier, Albert Watson, GianPaolo Barbieri, Oliviero Toscani, Helmut Newton, Ugo Mulas, Peter Lindbergh, Steve Hiett, Chris Von Wangenheim and Bert Stern.
Their original images reflected styles and trends from the Sixties to the Nineties, placing the onus on fur as a symbol of the unconventional and the recherché. The leitmotiv of the exhibition will be a projection towards the future, modernity and the unusual.
This is why, for the occasion, the world's top designers, such as John Galliano for Dior, Christian Lacroix, Jean Paul Gaultier, Tom Ford for Gucci, Miuccia Prada, Philip Treacy, Manolo Blahnik, Rifat Ozbek, Gianfranco Ferré, Fendi, Victor Alfaro, Vivienne Westwood, Dolce & Gabbana, Anna Molinari, Givenchy, Victor & Rolf, Versace, Lagerfeld, Marisol have developed new forms and suggested different ways of interpreting fur.
Art too played its part in the exhibition with works ranging from the historical 'Déjuener en fourrure' by Meret Oppenheim to 'Multi-women Bed' by the Atelier Van Lieshout, 'Dressing Gown with Personal Measurements' by Tobias Rehberger, 'Leopard Skin Lilly' by Mat Collishaw and the tribal chairs 'Condor' and 'Zozio' by Michel Haillard.
The whole exhibition was devised as a journey through the multiform facets of the creativity of fur.
Further Fantasy was realised on the occasion of the 50th Anniversary of the International Fur Trade Federation.
