C.C.E. has a vibrant and professional exhibition which provides excellent opportunities for close interaction between fashion and photography, makeup, lighting, designers, artistic sensitivity, and others.

First fashion+art exhibition in Dominican Republic.
WKTK which will take place in the beautiful city of Santo Domingo, D.R.,
from 18 June to 18 July, 2010



Ainek Abreu, Carlos Then, Juan Pappaterra, Carlos De Moya, Belkys Vasquez, Carmen Rincon, Marite Cabrera and Laura Guerrero are young, refreshingly talented designers that pull sophisticated forms and construction techniques from the past to create forward-looking clothes in this exhibition. With such incredible skill, they will surely play a large part in shaping the future of the fashion industry in D.R.

Who killed the king? is the conceptual interpretation of eight fashion designers which based on the idea of a chess team, show a stage of conspiracy with the common objective of take the position of the king.

Through eight sculpted dresses in black and white (seven figures and the king). the fashion designers have to rethink the fashion design as pure art, far from their functional requirements. and based on a different perspective, create an exhibition mounted with the actual pieces. And incriminating photographs for each suspicious character.
