Ottolinger SS21

September 30, 2020

The deconstructed nature of Ottolinger's Spring/Summer 2021 collection reflects the current state of the world we live in. But, for the brand, the collection is about creating clothes that empower people.

About the theme of the collection, Christa Bösch and Cosmia Gaadient, creative directors for Ottolinger, say, “For us, this means creating clothes that empower all of us, make us feel strong, more self-confident and ultimately celebrate the unique beauty of every one of us,” Bösch and Gadient says. “Clothes which embrace change and give us all of the superpower we need to sustain ourselves and become whoever we want to be.”

With the collection evoking the essence of superpowers, the clothing underlines the natural superpowers that we possess whether we’re conscious of them or not.

Mica Anganaraz for Courrèges FW25

September 18, 2025

French fashion house Courrèges features iconic Argentine model Mica Arganaraz for their elegant, chic and sculptural Fall / Winter 2025 campaign. Shot by Sam Rock, the editorial places Mica as the sole focus in a blank canvas where style becomes architecture. Hypnotic in her gaze and effortless in her pose, Mica easily portrays the collection's sharp silhouttes and daring textures; in vinyl and leather, the range of pieces are united by their neutral tones and edgy sophistication.

The new Fall / Winter collection is already available online at courreges.com and in Courrèges boutiques worldwide.

Elena Velez's BANDLAND (YR007)

As the models walked across the stage and up to the balconies, they crawled across the bar, twisting their bodies into eerie contortions, garbed in soot-stained corsets, lace-trimmed stockings, heavy waxed-canvas workwear, milkmaid necklines, bonnets, and prison-striped suits and caps, all underpinned by Zhilyova (the season’s lingerie partner). Among them, Anna Delvey (now a familiar face in Velez’s shows) once again blurred the line between performance, provocation, and the designer’s fascination with infamous outsiders. Though the venue was packed, the air felt barren and cold.

The soundtrack lurched and shifted abruptly, as though the train were halting at strange stations: each song a new landscape, each chapter a new ghostly presence. If last season were the sirens coming back to haunt us from a crashed ship, this season was the ghosts of a phantom train, trailing through the desolation of the American dream in a crowded yet hollow room.
