The Patchwork Family X Amsterdam Fashion Week

The Patchwork Family is a multidisciplinary upcycling collective rooted in Amsterdam’s queer creative scene. Known for turning chaos into beauty and fusing club culture with up-cycled couture, we create radical spaces of togetherness where fashion becomes a tool for storytelling, protest, and celebration. From underground performances to international fashion weeks, the Patchwork Family members’ work brings visibility to the margins — glamorous, political, and always in progress.
Born in the heat of the infamous Club Church, Family Affair is more than a show or a party — it’s a living, breathing spectacle where high fashion, performance art, and nightlife collide.
For this Grand Family Affair, you can expect a 40-minute rollercoaster of Sex, Drama, and Extravaganza — and of course, the hottest after-party. Brought to life by over 80 artists from Amsterdam’s vibrant underground, this immersive experience will be one of the highlights of Amsterdam Fashion Week 2025. Expect up-cycled couture, radical drag, sweat-dripping performances, and a catwalk that never stays in one lane.
*All those who believe in and strive for a world free of fascism, misogyny, transphobia, homophobia — and obviously a world without genocide.
