The image steps off the wall

The third Nouvelle Vision Runway Show returns to Pécs on 3 October. Staged at Nádor Gallery, the evening begins with Victor Vasarely’s optical and geometric universe but does not promise reproduction. Its ambition is to translate painterly rhythm into body, material and movement.

The two designers are Andrea Karácsony Couture and Edit Végh. They are building three distinct narrative and visual chapters: Rouge Horizon works with the tension of colour, Optical Elegance with the discipline of geometry, and Infinity with repetition and spatial perception. Together, the chapters propose a runway in which clothing is not illustration but a moving surface.

A fashion language for Pécs

Hungarian fashion tends to organise every major moment around Budapest. Nouvelle Vision is valuable precisely because it uses Pécs’s artistic heritage as a local and recognisable editorial principle. Vasarely is not merely a reference; he becomes a passage between city, gallery and contemporary dress.

According to the organisers’ 14 September announcement, admission is HUF 3,000 and includes a gift package. Participation details are available through the event’s official social channel. Visitors should look beyond complete silhouettes: geometric seam lines, the sheen of material and optical effects that shift in motion may become the real protagonists of the evening.

The project offers a persuasive example of how a Hungarian cultural code can become a contemporary fashion experience without hardening into museum scenery.

Event: 3 October 2026, Nádor Gallery, Pécs. Based on the organisers’ announcement dated 14 September 2026; updated 22 September.
