Stencil: A Runway Exhibition - Aberdeen Arts Centre

Celebrating the first anniversary of Stencil Magazine, STENCIL: A Runway Exhibition is an immersive evening showcasing the next generation of fashion talent. Bringing together four emerging designers from across the UK, the runway presents original collections that challenge convention through bold silhouettes, striking craftsmanship, and a distinctly gothic-inspired aesthetic.

Alongside the fashion, audiences will experience a spoken-word performance by much loved poet featured in issue 2, celebrating independent creativity, while local models bring each designer's vision to life on the runway. Bagpipes will play a key role in the event, welcoming guests as they ascend the venue's front steps and celebrating the rich Scottish heritage and setting of the exhibition. The evening also marks the official launch of Stencil Magazine's third issue, Hunger, which explores ambition, desire, identity, and creative drive through fashion, photography, interviews, poetry, and visual art.

Created by Aberdeen-based independent publication Stencil, this exhibition celebrates collaboration, emerging artists, and contemporary culture, offering audiences a unique opportunity to discover the future of fashion and creative expression in an unforgettable live experience.
