BoxEight, the downtown art-meets-fashion organization that’s put Society For Rational Dress and Endovanera down the runway in the past, is eschewing their standard fashion show format this season in favor of an event that veers more on the art side.
As of now, there are seven confirmed designers who will be paired with their very own photographerto create their Spring 2010 lookbooks at BoxEight studios. Each designer will have created their own installation in which to shoot their Spring collections inside the gallery. The installations will be celebrated with two parties over two nights in conjunction with Flaunt Magazine.
Then, Flaunt will pick their favorite photographs to use in a 24 page supplement to be included in their November issue.
Here is the list of designers and their lens men, which we just received exclusively from a little birdie at BoxEight:

UPDATE: We just received a new list of “confirmed” labels from BoxEight and Riser isn’t one of them. Apparently there is an extra day of festivities now, too. See the new list after the jump.
