> Mugler, with Formichetti as brand new Creative Director, has been for my little eye The Show this AW  Runaway in Paris. Obviously there has been some other great shows, but for me most seemed too familiar…It´s bad and great that Fashion is the constant hunt of newness… and probably runaways have to evolve to attract our attention. Formichetti & Lady Gaga have created a new & exciting languaje that coincidentely or not recreates Mugler spirit. Bravo!!

> Lost and found ” a collection dedicated to pure ideas based on the diminishing craftsmanship and artisanal nature that has been lost or replaced by hyper industrialization and the obsessive desire for constant change. In an attempt to preserve and revive old techniques and materials, the collection evolves from research and creative experimentation aspiring to define a more complex sense of luxury…(noovoeditions)

It also looks more deeply into the textures and the potentials of black in diverse materials, including fur, leather and lace. In addition, the exhibition includes masterpieces by contemporary designers who, like the city of Antwerp, have a special connection to black.

With silhouettes by Belgian designers as well as international couture houses: Ann Demeulemeester, Olivier Theyskens, Dirk Van Saene, Givenchy (Riccardo Tisci), Chanel, Gareth Pugh and more.
