Keburia AW25
I took my seat at the Keburia AW25 show and almost immediately struck up a conversation with a very nice person about how this LFW was going and if we were going to Paris after this or not. We also discussed the front row girls who the designer had dressed for the occasion and how they were doing a great job showing off the SS25 looks. No, this sort of fashion comradery is not typical for me at Fashion Weeks. But for some reason the vibe was just right for a coming together of peoples with shared interests.
Designer George Keburia, known for his sculptural silhouettes and gothic undertones, delivered a collection that felt like a love letter to nocturnal glamour, with a dash of Georgian folklore. This season, Keburia played with contrasts in surrealism and traditionalism. Oversized and exaggerated features such as extra long sleeves and ultra voluminous cuffs or skirts were shown with surreal ensembles of layered cardigan dresses and multi-gloved gowns. There was a strong element of the designer's Georgian roots that felt like the foundation of the collection.
Keburia's designs speak to a specific audience, one that is not afraid to take a stance and express themselves loudly. Keburia’s AW25 isn’t just clothing; it’s a mood. For those who dress not to blend in, but to cast long shadows.
