Read MoreWalking into St. Paul’s Church for Hector Maclean’s AW25 show, "Bastard Aristocrat", the atmosphere was buzzing with anticipation, equal parts reverence and rebellion. The setting alone, with rain-slicked cobblestones and Union Jack umbrellas bobbing outside, felt like a metaphor for Maclean’s collection, a collision of sacred tradition and anarchic energy. As the wind picked up one of the umbrellas and set it flying majestically across the runway, the show begins...
Read MoreDesigner 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.
Read MoreWhen the PR person at a show tells you to sit front row instead of your designated second row seat, it is like getting upgraded to First from Economy Plus on a flight. When I got upgraded, I knew this show was going to be special. Pauline Dujancourt’s AW25 collection is a delicate ode to memory and rebirth. As someone who’s raced through Parisian traffic to catch a closing gate (KIMHEKIM SS25), I appreciate when a show demands you slow down and Dujancourt’s did just that.
Read MoreCharlie Constantinou’s AW25 showcase at London Fashion Week felt like stepping into a mirage, industrial grit melting into Saharan warmth. Held at 180 The Strand, the space was transformed with hand-dyed drapes and dappled lighting, echoing the collection’s fusion of technical precision and nomadic romance.
Read MoreThe Kalighat paintings; bold, fluid, and unapologetically narrative. These works, born near Kolkata’s Kalighat temple, once chronicled mythology and social change. Gupta reimagined them with a modernist twist, collaborating with Midnapore artisans to handcraft prints that feel both ancient and urgent.
Read MoreThis season we saw less of the streetwear aesthetic and I was glad to see it go. Having been to many seasons of Fasts' shows, that angle just really wasn't him nor was it something that the audience necessarily wants from him. The AW25 show felt more like a return to what he is best at, designing intricate yet forceful looks.
Read MoreThe show opened with a whisper, models in well tailored pale yellows and creams. The soundtrack, a haunting fusion of David Lynch’s Strange and "Unproductive Thinking" and Al Bowlly’s "Midnight, the Stars and You" lent the space a cinematic unease, as if we’d stepped into a Lynchian reverie.
Read MoreCan I please be a Ujoh girl? Ujoh is like Japanese Celine, I don't know how else to describe it. What the Celine girl is in France is what the Ujoh girl is in Japan. I have been watching this brand for years now, and every season I am in complete awe.
Read MoreI was just at the world's most fashionable block party, XULY.Bët SS25. Yes, that's exactly what it was. Traveled back in time to 1990s for the chicest block party in the world. Designer Lamine Kouyaté is known for being a pioneer in upcycling.
Read MoreShiatzy Chen, often hailed as the "Chanel of Taiwan," has once again proven why they're a force to be reckoned with in the global fashion scene. The SS25 collection is a masterful blend of Eastern aesthetics and Western silhouettes, creating a harmonious fusion that's both fresh and timeless.
Read MoreThe Palais de Tokyo, buzzing with anticipation..."Is that Ashley Graham?" I frantically texted Coco. He couldn't make it to the show but confirmed that my eyes were not deceiving me. She looked absolutely stunning in her ATLEIN ensemble. ATLEIN can make everything unbearably sexy.
Read MoreThis season, Loewe featured structured see-through silk chiffon dresses draped over garment cages, reminiscent of hoop skirts of yesteryear. And feathers, tons of feathers. The craftsmanship on all of the feathered pieces were just astounding.
