Kermit Tesoro design workshop

Following previous successful design workshops given by international (shoe) design talents Kei Kagami and Kobi Levi, the Dutch Leather and Shoe Museum in Waalwijk proudly presents another design workshop by Kermit Tesoro from the Philippines on Wednesday 1 Oktober 2014.


Observant visitors know Kermit Tesoro from his modest contribution to the Mode Biënnale Arnhem: M°BA exhibition ‘Fetishism in Fashion’ 2013. Lady Gaga fans will remember Tesoro’s work in her ‘Marry the Night’ video, where she shines in a ‘muscle dress’ created by Kermit Tesoro and Leeroy New. After that Tesoro contributed to the Lady Gaga + Gilt campaign, in which his terrifying high, heelless shoes attracted more attention than Lady Gaga herself.

At the start of his mini shoe exhibition ‘Kermit Tesoro’ this remarkable designer comes to Waalwijk to give a design workshop. Tesoro will share his skills in the field of three-dimensional design on a shoe last. The workshop is specifically for shoe designers and/or traditional shoemakers, but other interested parties are of course very welcome. For students knowledge of shoe design is desirable.

There is room for up to 25 people.
The costs are € 40,- per person, including coffee or tea, lunch and materials. Registration for this workshop can be done via e-mail.
