‘La Collectionneuse’ marks the eighth year of Burc Akyol’s house — collection expressing sensuality and strength, tenderness and quiet confidence.
I first met Burc five years ago, when his apartment still functioned as both studio and showroom. I remember being struck by the tailoring and his vision — a modern, sophisticated Parisian chic that inevitably recalls Monsieur Saint Laurent, yet filtered through Burc’s own heritage and Turkish roots.
For Burc, every collection is deeply personal. After eight years of an almost ascetic devotion to his craft, he spoke of reconnecting with friends and rediscovering the joy of life beyond the atelier. That shift is palpable here. The collection feels looser, more instinctive, sensual in a quieter way,... Read More

GCDS celebrated its 10 years anniversary. Giuliano showcased a collection, which was sort of a retrospective and a love letter to his brand – the fantasy that he turned into reality.
Since the beginning, Giuliano mixed elements of pop culture, Italian craftmanship, self-irony in a very sensual manner, and total Italian excess – every show always felt more like a spectacle. The SS26 included many of his signature looks from reinforced lingerie, to exaggerated accessories to signature stripper platforms.
What has always set to me GCDS apart from other Italian brands – it’s the people. “Community” maybe the most overused word today, yet for Calza it has never been a marketing strategy — it is embedded in the... Read More

“Had I been nailed to the floor, it would not have reduced my scope of action. Why were things as they were? What was it in my…body that predetermined my whole life? You could scratch yourself til you bled and not find an answer. You could split your head open on the steel bars of gender and not discover the reason.”
— Paul B. Preciado, Can the Monster Speak?
SHAME’s fourth runway collection explored the fleeting distortions of normative reality brought about by queerness. Approached as a technological prosthetic for the body, a medium through which one invents, disguises, and at times frees himself from the roles imposed upon us.

Garments by Rei Kawakubo, Issey Miyake, and Yohji Yamamoto are staged as sculptural forms within spare, Zen-inspired environments, emphasizing shadow, rawness, and the charged space between body and cloth. The concept frames fashion as a contemplative practice in which emptiness and ambiguity invite meaning to emerge slowly through stillness and spatial tension.

One of our favorite models — and a rising film director — Lili Sumner is in Paris this week. The LA based photographer Alexandra Cabral captured her in her hotel room, floating between jet-lag and high fashion, moving with that sexy, playful confidence that has made her an icon of her generation. Inside, she slips into the new Nike Shox Z, a super-colorful reinterpretation of the classic Shox spirit: all-day comfort fused with a sharp, sculpted silhouette, reduced to a minimalist line. A design both nostalgic and futuristic — like a fast-forward from the original Shox running shoes.
Lili never needs to pretend to be sporty or stylish, or both at the same time; she is real fun... Read More

For Spring/Summer 2026, Tom Ford’s sensuality is inebriated by Haider Ackerman’s twilight. In a dark set, the collection unfolds lustfully as models cruise around, parading in a state of controlled desire.
Sexuality is at its most euphoric when it leaves to the imagination. The opening looks, a triad of laser-cut patent leather coats, slits open as models move. Underneath the high gloss shine, skin is barely visible.
Ackerman’s codes were pushed to their most erotic Here color itself becomes a vehicle for seduction. An architecturally draped black dress teases a peek of mint.
To the sound of David Bowie’s voice, the French designer conjures images of Tony Scott’s film, “The Hunger” (1983). A glamorous couple in matching blue... Read More
