FUI / Conceptual dinners

Wear. Taste. Feel.

A dinner experienced through food, garments and the senses.

Hosted at selected locations in Paris and Amsterdam.

Created by Illi Goren in collaboration with Karina de Alba, this evolving project brings conceptual clothing, experimental gastronomy and human connection to the same table.

Drawing on neurogastronomy, the study of how the brain creates our experience of flavour, we explore how texture, aroma, colour and atmosphere influence what we taste and how we feel.

The experience

A surprise pescatarian menu unfolds as a sequence of sensory encounters. Dishes explore emotional themes; FUI garments become part of the evening, inviting guests to experience clothing through touch, movement and the way it feels on the body.

Food and garments share a creative language: form, texture, contrast and transformation. Conversation and the presence of others complete the experience.

Developed at the intersection of design, psychology and neuroscience, each edition is an artistic exploration of perception and connection.
