Paris-based IFM student Juyeon Kim explores the intersection of fashion and sculpture through “Overdress(ed),” a project inspired by mid-century playground structures and play sculptures. Translating the curved geometries of slides and climbing frames into garment construction, the work treats the body as a sculptural base wrapped in a boning structure that creates fluid, architectural silhouettes. Satin draping softens the rigid framework, highlighting a striking tension between structure and movement while capturing the physicality, joy, and playful energy associated with childhood.Designer: @jukiim_

Rejecting the plastic composition of traditional vegan leathers, Lary Rauh’s "Made to Last" is a delicate subversion of durability within the fashion industry. Developed for the "Vanitas – The Beauty of Transience” exhibition at Museum LA8, the London College of Fashion student utilized a combination of real apples and wool to create a garment that is intentionally fragile and designed to decay. The exhibition piece has prompted a series of apple leather pieces that have been subjected to various methods of disintegration. Illuminated from within, the translucent layers of the piece highlight the imperfections and labor inherent in a process where the material begins to break down almost as soon as it is finished. By hand-sewing an ephemeral silhouette that references the forbidden fruit, Rauh poses a vital question about our systemic reliance on non-biodegradable resources: on a planet with limited resources, what does it truly mean for something to be made to last?Designer and photographer: @laryrauh

Finding beauty in the architectural tension of the Lake District, this collection draws a direct line between the imposing Neo-Gothic silhouette of Wray Castle and the intricate craft of evening wear. London-based designer Emile Braibant translates the castle’s "mock" brutalist elegance into structural pieces adorned with antique Swarovski pendants and hand-braided silver thread sourced from 1920s headbands. This exploration of heritage continues with designs inspired by the Ruined Abbey at Painshill Park, where the wistful reflections of 18th-century masonry inform the fluidity of the garments. By repurposing antique jewellery and trims, the work bridges the gap between the monumental scale of British landmarks and the delicate intimacy of high-fashion craftsmanship.Designer: @emile.braibantttModel: @aivi_phongMaterials: @accessoriesofold

Paige Mathes’ senior capstone collection, Here In Our Underworld, explores what it means to communicate without speaking. Informed by her lifelong experience with a stutter, the collection turns silent dialogue into fashion design, moving through isolation and despair toward hope and resilience. With restriction built into every look, Mathes uses structure to reflect the tension of wanting to express oneself when words do not come easily, creating garments that speak on their own terms.Designer: @paige.mathesPhotographer: @mariatellian

Khoi Tram’s latest project, Relief de Laplace, translates the historic grandeur of the Ho Chi Minh City Central Post Office into the tactile language of fashion. Developed as part of his studies at Van Lang University, the collection captures the essence of weathered surfaces and aged architectural reliefs. Through a disciplined palette of white and weathered grey, Tram utilizes artisanal techniques like gradient dyeing, layered lace, and intricate cording to mimic the cracked textures and flowing curves of the building’s iconic gate motifs. It is a thoughtful exploration of time and preservation, turning rigid structural inspiration into fluid, layered garments that balance heritage with a modern editorial edge.Designer: Khoi Tram @kaydenpriwPhotographer: Huy Hoang @sheepgoestosleepModel: Ha Mi @mi.ngungoMakeup Artist: Phat Bui @f.bui06

Shenkar College student Ohad Caspi explores the visual language of authority by bridging the gap between fifteenth-century Western Europe and modern military structure. Drawing inspiration from the sharp, dark silhouettes of figures like Philip the Good and the androgynous bronze works of Donatello, the collection challenges the traditional masculine archetype. Every element serves an allegorical purpose: tailored jackets with military peak lapels dialogue with historical headdresses, while leather overalls reimagine functional military pouches as sculptural, intimate silhouettes. Even the accessories carry weight, with triangular forms referencing both historical body ideals and the pink triangle—a poignant symbol of vulnerability and exclusion. By blending rigid hierarchy with gothic sensitivity, Caspi proposes a vision of masculinity where power comfortably coexists with tenderness and emotional depth.Garments, shoes, accessories: @ohadcaspiCamera, set design, creative: @ohadcaspiMentors: @irkagold , @ofirivgimindSpecial thanks: @shenkar.fashion @shenkar_college

Singaporean designer Chine Ang’s Polimoda collection explores devotion as something delicate, persistent, and deeply felt. Through light transparency, fragile threads, curved shapes, and altar-inspired forms, the work becomes an offering of love, effort, and emotion. Yet beneath the softness is a clear sense of protection and strength, built through thorned branches, wire, leather, structural knitwear, corsetry, an oversized belt, and pockets. A collection held in the tension between fragility and resilience, where beauty emerges quietly from the shadows.Designer and Photographer @chine_qinModels: Constance @constanceamelieholly, Ella @ellabousamra, Umberto @_umbertoagostino_

In the early morning mist of the dance floor, where the constant hum of external information finally fades, Minori Yanagase finds the space to listen to the self. Her brand, FEY MINORI YANAGASE, brought this introspective philosophy to the chaotic streets of Harajuku for the "WITNESS BUG IN HARAJUKU" installation. By treating the model as a "bug" or a glitch in the urban matrix, the project functioned as a raw intrusion into the city’s sensory overload, inviting witnesses to pause and reboot their own reality. This Kyoto-based perspective offers a deliberate departure from the noise, using street-side intervention to explore how we release emotion and reclaim our own voices within the modern landscape.Designer: @feyminoriyanagasePhotographer: @st_nagasakaStylist: @2000_01.01Model: @ha_ku.0819Make up: @umeoooHair: @miyashita_haruka33333Nails: @koharu_spt_babySounds: @yugoslavia1036Brand: @feyminoriyanagase

Barcelona-based designer Luis Arencibia explores the visceral intersection of life and dissolution in his latest collection, MORIVITAE. Developed at LCI Barcelona, the project is a deeply personal response to his mother’s battle with metastatic cancer, translating the raw realities of physical deterioration into a baroque visual narrative. Arencibia utilizes intricate embroidery inspired by mould, 3D-printed growths, and laser-cut poetry on textile scraps to mirror a body being overtaken by illness. By pairing these experimental textures with traditional elements like corsetry, ruffles, and macramé, the collection transforms a traumatic experience into a poetic study of the human condition and the inevitable relationship between the self and nature.Designer: Luis Arencibia @leon.arencibia @leonarencibiaModels: @jocelyn_mozar @nicoporterrMakeup artist: @mimattemakeup @marceematutePhotographer: @nadhia_nizarala

Ionut Razvan’s latest collection explores the weight of words left unsaid and the quiet persistence of loneliness. Moving beyond traditional paper, these unspoken thoughts are translated onto the body through the deconstruction of masculine forms, softening rigid structures into something fluid and unstable. The work features repetitive draping that mirrors the recurring nature of isolation, alongside intricate craftsmanship, including a garment meticulously hand-sewn with 2,000 real pen nibs and a dramatic tulle train. This collection, which debuted during Mercedes-Benz Bucharest Fashion Week, serves as a material residue of silence and a trace of the things we never quite find the courage to speak aloud.Designer: @ionutrazvan_Shot by @ramona.murguPhoto assistant @anatudorgbMuse @patricia.ptyStyled by @micul.printJewellery @stildiamondsWig and make up @aphrworldShoes @ginissimashoesStudio @rawrent.roShow: @mbbfw_official

With Skin of Systems, the Amsterdam-based designer Miles Delfos examines how fashion, armor, and architecture act as protective layers between body, culture, and structure. Moving from soft textile folds to the solidity of concrete, the collection holds a tension between romantic nuance and sober uniformity, treating contrast not as opposition but as coherence within a grounded design language.Designer, Creative Director & Producer: @milesmaarPhotography: @suuswaijersPhotography assistent: @inigoviuProduction on set: @helenrobertssonStyling: @annebaarslagMuah: @roosverboomTalents:Faye @ullamodelsJulie @tulipmodels_amsterdamBori @maxmenmodelsAmin @maxmenmodelsShoes:@sophietine@terraamsterdam@sinecosineofficial
