The runway was set to an electronic song by Offaiah, creating an energetic atmosphere as models confidently strutted down the catwalk. Knotted tops adorned with glamorous boas were paired with low-rise trousers, showcasing the brand’s name on the underwear. The collection also included lightweight, sheer tops and “naked” dresses in pale white, revealing the models’ bodies and intimate lingerie. Shiny skater-cut mini skirts, sophisticated white coats with fur and feather finishes, and oversized textured trousers provided a diverse range of options for the modern fashion-forward individual.
On the same day, Japanese brand Sacai also made a statement with a co-ed fashion show inspired by the film Interstellar. Designer Chitose Abe displayed masterful tailoring skills throughout the collection, featuring functional denim pieces, layered garments, and tweed looks with unexpected twists. Collaborations with Nike, Moncler, and Carhartt WIP added luxurious and streetwear elements to the collection.
