Bread & Butter, a fashion fair that travels between Barcelona and Berlin every six months. This behemoth event is so overwhelming that after just a few hours you feel like screaming to be let out of the warren of mega-brands, wishing none of us would ever have to wear clothes again. That’s why the smaller events happening around town make for better bite-sized morsels of style.

In his latest show Montreal based artist Kevin Ledo references images from highly visible fashion advertisements such as Dior, Prada, and Louis Vuitton.
