SOLACE
ABOUT SOLACE
SOLACE is a multidisciplinary platform that celebrates independent design and creative community. What began as a curated exhibition in Athens has evolved into a growing ecosystem — merging fashion, art, and culture with new ways of gathering, sharing, and collaborating.
OUR STORY
Founded in Athens, SOLACE was created to give space to independent designers, artists, and makers — voices often overlooked by the mainstream. Since its first edition, it has transformed the Athens Conservatoire into a living landscape of fashion, installations, performances, and dialogue.
Each edition of SOLACE brings together hundreds of creatives, brands, and visitors in an industrial setting — blending the raw and the refined, the local and the global, the personal and the collective.
More than an event, SOLACE is an ongoing movement towards sustainability, authenticity, and creative independence.
