KENZO x Vans Spring 2020

June 11, 2020

For spring 2020, KENZO is back in biz with Vans, and it is officially Felipe Oliveira Baptista's first collaboration since he's been at the helm as KENZO's creative director. The latest collab goes "Old-Skool" with archival prints from KENZO emblazoned on classic Vans styles like high-top and low-top.

Beyond just sneakers, KENZO is also releasing a limited edition skateboard deck with The Skateroom, and all profits from the skateboard will be donated to Freedom Skatepark, a social skate initiative that aims empower at-risk youth living in Jamaica, established by The Skateroom in partnership with Concrete Jungle Foundation and Flipping Youth.

The newest campaign highlights the cop-worthy sneakers and skateboard in a series of intimate yet warmly nostalgic images. Shot by photographer Ari Marcopoulos, the photos capture a group of friends, namely Tre’Veon Ladson, Tyron Watts, Vincent Nava, Omoye Brown, Surish Singh, David Branom and Rebecca L’Amore, in Los Angeles hanging out under the summery SoCal sun. And yes, they actually skate, bro.

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.
