Saturday lecture
Can you be both well-dressed and sustainable – without spending a fortune? Drawing on his work on the book En gentleman i genbrug, Jakob Seerup talks about the hunt for quality clothing in second-hand shops.
Along the way, he explores the cultural history of menswear: from tailoring, tweed and hats to the arrival of polyester and today's throwaway culture. The lecture offers practical advice, surprising finds and food for thought about the cultural history of clothing, sustainability and pollution.
By museum curator Jakob Seerup, PhD
Bornholms Museum is hosting the lecture in collaboration with Bornholms Folkeuniversitet.
