HAUTE COUTURE / AW’22

POWER DRESSING: A FASHION SHOW IN THREE ACTS

1. Before
Radically tailored looks strut the grid off the catwalk, like peacocks. Masculine coats, jackets and shirts are narrow at the hips and cut away from the top. Hovering around the body, they frame and protect the shoulders and face, like delicate portrait busts. Graphic, compact fabrics underline their sculptural rigour. The surreal silhouette seems literally inflated, as if ready to explode. A harsh feeling of tension pervades the moment.


2. The Power of Transformation
Without the construction that creates an illusion of power, a new perspective arises.


3. After
Radical tailoring at second glance. A release of tension generates comfort. Hard becomes soft. Shape becomes drape. Radical is wearable
