At a glance

Denim and leather anchor the collection in familiar clothes, while exaggerated shoulders and peplums change their outline. Dense knitwear sits beside more fragile tulle. Polka dots introduce a graphic rhythm across pleated skirts. The interest lies in the interruptions: recognizable pieces become less predictable through shifts in construction and surface.

Volume interrupts precision

Rounded peplums and substantial knits soften the authority of structured tailoring.

Everyday materials

Leather and denim provide a foundation for more experimental proportions.

An unfinished edge

Frayed tulle and asymmetric pleating complicate the otherwise controlled silhouette.

The setting

Shown on 13 September 2025. At The Shed, fog and shallow pools of water formed the runway setting.
