In an abandoned Berlin bunker (once home to women and their children during WWII), the German fashion label’s avant-garde eye focused on the demands to nurture and protect the next generation.
At Berlin Fashion Week, the nostalgia-fueled German label staged a glorious indie sleaze revival inside the city’s greatest club, Berghain.
The Berlin label, known for its punchy Berghain bangers, took a more serious approach this season, guided by Norwegian modernist poet Gunvor Hofmo’s ‘From Another Reality.’
The Berlin designer was simultaneously inspired by Heinrich Hoffmann’s popular children’s book, ‘Struwwelpeter,’ and the Doomsday Clock, or the metaphorical countdown to humanity’s destruction.
Designer Anthony Vaccarello looked to Robert Mapplethorpe’s progressive photography and Yves Saint Laurent’s classic couture to create a collection rooted in contrast.
