Summary/Abstract: The present paper analyses carnivalesque aspects (in the Mikhail Bakhtinian sense) of the popular student fashion shows in the ERKI (Eesti NSV Riiklik Kunstiinstituut – State Art Institute of the Estonian SSR), which took place from 1982 to 1985. The paper focuses particularly on ambivalent laughter, the grotesque and symbolic transgression.
