22 Mar 2023

For Chanel’s Spring-Summer 2023 Haute Couture collection, Virginie Viyard and Xavier Veilhan headed to Gabrielle Chanel’s apartment at 31, Rue Cambon and found inspiration in the collection of objects, sculptures, drawings representing lions, does, stags, birds and camels displayed at this emblematic address.

Schiaparelli Haute Couture Spring-Summer 2023

13 Feb 2023

In 1308, the poet Dante Alighieri began what would be his masterwork, The Divine Comedy, a 14,233-line poem divided into three books: Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso.

We all know this work, by name if not by heart. And yet when I revisited it recently, I was struck by something I’d missed when I first encountered it—not the horror of hell that Dante conjures so vividly, nor the sense of despair that overcomes you as you descend further and further into the realm—but by how the story...

The tree of life in Dior's Haute Couture FW22

12 Dec 2022

Kristina Fidelskaya AW22 collection inspired by a moment of silence

12 Dec 2022

Continuing the label's story, Kristina Fidelskaya is proud to present her Autumn / Winter 2022 collection, named “In Silence”, inspired by a state of mind, a moment of silence. In the absence of speech, stillness forms, and clarity emerges – beauty becomes clearer. Beauty does not need to show off, does not compete, does not need to be in a rush – beauty is not loud. The allure of sonance is taken over by the serenity of delicate quietness.

The Autumn / Winter 2022’s looks are an ode... Read More

Michael Kors Fall 2022: A lot of statement outerwear

Kors shifted his show to the evening hours this season, and enlisted Miguel to warm up the crowd. He got toes tapping, including... Read More

A celebration of Dior's ceaseless imagination

04 Jul 2022

For the Fall 2022 Dior Men’s Collection, artistic director of menswear Kim Jones draws inspiration from an epochal figure, the author Jack Kerouac – a man who shifted writing as seismically as Christian Dior changed fashion.

Kerouac’s second Novel, ‘On the Road’, is widely agreed to be the defining work of the beat generation. published in 1957, the year of Christian Dior’s passing, it marked a new era for his métier, just as Dior’s debut ten years earlier had, in turn, for his.

Valentino: Anatomy of Couture

27 May 2022

The body, that of women in particular, is both a matter of fact and a cultural construct, of which beauty canons change over time, imposing now tense verticality, now soft horizontality, celebrating certain parts of the anatomy over others. In the system of Haute Couture this drive to idealization materializes in the body of the house model, on which everything is designed and built, becoming real while remaining an abstraction.

Driven by the urgency of rethinking the rituals and... Read More

Dior Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2022

15 Apr 2022

By definition, haute couture is handmade, from start to finish. The labor-intensive process is hidden in the details, and to the untrained eye, all there is to see is exquisite runway plastered with detailed embroidery, fancy embellishments, and expertise in textile manipulation. But what we rarely think about is the time that goes into it. These made-to-measure designer items are akin to art, and many belong in a museum. For Dior’s spring-summer 2022 haute couture collection, sometimes it... Read More
