Landlord Men's Spring/Summer 19

July 12, 2018

By the end of Landlord’s SS19 runway show, the floor was littered with small and large patches of multicolor goo, which swung from models’ hands like useless purses, cascaded down their heads in quivering waterfalls, and was smeared over their mouths à la that scene from the first X-Men movie where that slimey frog dude blasts Storm in the face with goop (anyone?).

Inspired by skate, internet and surf culture, designer Ryohei Kawanishi offered up fairly traditional silhouettes that were accented by plenty of bright zippers and pockets and bags.

In the end, the collection may not have delivered on all of its conceptual promises, but the show was unforgettable and hinted at the creative growth we've come to expect from Kawanishi’s designs.

Courrèges Fall Winter 2025

March 07, 2025

Pulling inspiration from Dan Colen’s 'Moments like This,' Courrèges Fall Winter Collection is filled to the brim with eye-catching silhouettes and eclectic textures. The brand is known for its emphasis on positivity and approaches the runway with the hope of uniting its wearers. For this collection, the event served as a safe space promoting a sense of joy and togetherness for those in attendance.

Classic pieces such as the trapeze mini and the tank top were reworked and invested with a fresh sense of celebration. Bending the classic silhouettes, the ensembles were filled with asymmetry and slanted angels while still managing to maintain a balance between the old and new. Nicolas Di Felice and scenography director Remy Brière collaborated to create an explosion of multicolored confetti as everyday staples were reimagined in a new context.

Natasha Zinko’s AW25 Collection: BOTCHED

March 04, 2025

Natasha Zinko’s AW25 collection, BOTCHED, takes fashion apart and rebuilds it in bold, unexpected ways. Classic pieces are stretched and reshaped into something entirely new. Pinstripe suits mix with corsets, oversized hoodies zip into tight tank tops, and boxer briefs transform into elegant skirts. Nothing is as it seems.

The collection embraces upcycling, using old fabrics to create fresh designs. Clothes are flipped inside out, stacked, and pieced together with unusual details such as extra sleeves and uneven hems. Some outfits are tight in one place and oversized in another, creating a playful contrast.

With BOTCHED, Natascha Zinko challenges traditional fashion rules. The collection reflects a world that feels messy and unpredictable, proving that imperfection can be beautiful.

Take a look at the lookbook below.
