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

For his 30th show in Saint Laurent, Anthony Vaccarello went big: shoulders, silhouettes, messages, colors, jewels, messages. Spring/Summer 2026 encapsulates the YSL woman but doesn’t cage her. That would be impossible.
The recent rise of conservative ideologies shackles women to chains thought long gone. The Belgian designer harkens back to the quintessential YSL woman to inspire freedom.
Vaccarello imagines cruising in the Tuileries. It’s an easy image to conjure: belted leather coats that engorge the shoulders parade in a maze of white hydrangeas.
Still, YSL sexuality isn’t musky, it’s perfumed. Models don’t wear the imposing leather jackets naked underneath, but with massive pussybow blouses, their collars almost extending past the line of powerful shoulders.
The collection ends with a... Read More

Burberry is at its best when it leans on its authority. For SS26, British culture was explored through its musical legacy.
Citing inspiration from the upcoming Beatles film, the British designer pushed for tighter silhouettes. His mop-top muses inspired both funky colored fitted suits and mouthwatering skinny scarves,
It wasn’t just with silhouettes Lee experimented on. Denim, cotton and woven raffias were made waterproof, seeking to expand the material lexicon of Burberry.
Crochet dresses paired with Glastonbury-appropriate boots and twin sets layered under parkas: the dirt-covered runway projected an unmistakable image. Festival culture was honored earnestly.
With Twiggy in the front row, Daniel Lee saw the brand’s legacy through a mod kaleidoscope. Psychedelic (but still lucid) checkered trench coats... Read More

Dilara Findikoglu’s SS26, Cage of Innocence, stages female oppression and fantasizes on its sweet destruction.
Of the many forms these metaphorical chains assumed, the first was chromatic: white. Bound by the expectation of purity, garments began as innocent—a frilly dress, a lace-trimmed cape—only to slide into sleazier incarnations.
Belts became the most obvious yet effective device: a tight cotton jersey T-shirt molded into the shape of the corset beneath it, three belts binding the legs of a sheer black dress.
At times, the metaphor’s veil was entirely sheer—a model in a pristine babydoll dress gagged by her metal headgear. At others, it was brilliant, as in a cherry-adorned dress. The fruit, long tied to... Read More

At Margiela, one does not present a collection — one delivers a ritual. And Glenn Martens, for his first artisanal haute couture, did not betray the cult — he transcended it.
For his first couture FW 2025/26 show, he could have done Martin. He chose instead to do Glenn — with Martin in his veins. The plastic wrap as a second skin, the draped silhouettes like liquid sculptures, the faces masked not to conceal but to sublimate anonymity as an act of resistance in an age of compulsive selfies. Here, the invisible is no longer erasure — it is a declaration of dignity.
The house codes are here, very much alive: trompe-l’œil, the subversion of materials, garments as... Read More
