London-based label Kiko Kostadinov has taken over the British fashion scene with transformative tailoring and a utilitarian personality. The womenswear division led by Laura and Deanna Fanning is rising through the ranks with rebellious styles that are equally witty and jarring.

In September 2022, the Fanning sisters presented their first female-centric runway show at Paris Fashion Week, marking an unforgettable moment for the UK brand. Kiko Kostadinov documents the experience across its debut photo book, titled À Mon Seul Désir. Translating to “My Only Desire,” the show is captured by Japanese photographer E-WAX across 176 pages of memorable moments leading up to the debut.

Flicking through the pages, you’ll be transported inside Kiko Kostadinov’s London-based studio and watch the team craft looks for the show. Later, Kostadinov takes us to its Paris show venue, where we can experience the magic firsthand. Limited to 500 copies, the book cements the show into glossy pages illustrated by E-WAX with spiraling graphics that exude defiant energy.

Take a closer look at Kiko Kostadinov’s À Mon Seul Désir book in the gallery above.

Elsewhere, The World Is Your Oyster’s FW23 collection embraces the bright side of a “Farewell.”
