Happy Mum’s Day!❣️ Love you so, so, so, so, so much Mum ❤️ @queenclassics ❤️ #Love #Mum #SpringTime

ERL-IFICATION ✈️ #DACBE: With Californian designer #EliRussellLinnetz of #ERL signed on as the #DiorMan’s latest guest designer, it made sense that creative director #KimJones would choose to show the capsule collection against the backdrop of #LosAngeles’ beachfront. When Jones arrived at ERL HQ in #VeniceBeach to work on the capsule, their creative chemistry was almost instant. “I was 99% excited at the idea, 1% scared that I would lose myself, just because Kim has such a strong vision of the world and his collections are so refined and striking. My world is so much more chaotic,” said Linnetz. “But the second Kim came to the studio, it felt easy, seamless.” More on the JOURNAL 🌞 #Dior #Resort2023 #Menswear #ManFashion #Tailoring #DACBECOLLECTIONS 🛬 #collage by me.

For the first time ever took part in an academic conference (“Body against socio-political conflicts”) 🤩 Talked about #Balenciaga AW22, the way that unique, mise-en-scene-like fashion show reflected on the war in Ukraine, and how @demna tackled the refugee-related childhood trauma through his artistic medium. Thanks @neonli for the amazing panel! ❤️‍🔥 (P.s. I’ve also provided all the graphic visuals for the event) 🪂 @sztuczny_element #Demna #DemnaGvasalia

COSMOGONIE 🔮 #DACBE: Once upon a time (last Monday), a tribe of cosmic goddesses and priests landed in #Puglia and inhabited #CastelDelMonte – the extraordinary, 13th century castle that actually looks like an alien spaceship. All thanks to #Gucci and its #Resort2023 fashion show event. #AlessandroMichele’s line of reasoning has never been linear. The collections he creates are prismatic affairs, as visually diverse as they are infused by meanings sometimes impervious to easy deciphering. His fascination for layered references and his love of history make him a collector of objects and memories, an archivist of galaxies of images. Not surprisingly, he called this collection “Cosmogonies“. More on the JOURNAL 🪐 #LanaDelRey #OutOfThisWorld #WalterBenjamin #CabinetDesCuriosites #DACBECOLLECTIONS 🐚 #collage by me.

CAMP-Y 🐬 #DACBE: During the #AustraliaFashionWeek, I always look forward to #JordanDalah’s collections. His #Resort2023 show was ‘camp’ – not in the Susan Sontag way, but in the literal way. Guests arrived to find comfortable camping chairs instead of the expected benches, while the modern ensembles saw Dalah embrace colour and the beauty of the outdoors. The designer possesses the distinct ability to combine Australian optimism, raw materials and fearless innovation with European craftsmanship and distinct elevated aesthetic – a skill which can be attributed to his time at Central Saint Martins. The joyful collection saw Dalah expand on his existing vocabulary of voluminous silhouettes, signature hemlines and avant garde expressionism by returning to his roots with designs that are fit for prêt-à-porter release.

PAST-PRESENT-FUTURE GODDESSES 🪐 #DACBE: It’s been a while since I truly enjoyed a #LouisVuitton collection by #NicolasGhesquière. Finally, something clicked again for me. The #Resort2023 line-up was a powerful ode to goddesses – of the past, present and future. The collection – presented in #LaJolla, California – was a wonderful reminder of how forever-forward this Parisian designer is.

DANS PARIS 🌬 #DACBE: Last week, #HediSlimane has presented his #AW22 collection for #Celine, which he chose to stage in two historical monuments in #Paris: the Hôtel de la Marine and the the Hôtel National des Invalide. Looking at the first half of the collection - entitled “Dans Paris” - you’d be forgiven for thinking that Slimane opted to pare down any notion of extravagance, a tricky feat given the opulent settings. Strolling below the golden ceilings came jeans and everyday wardrobe staples like a cream roll-neck jumper, a jersey zip-up and an oversized grey hoodie so large it extended into a dress. As club sounds pulsated louder throughout the show, as did the clothes, seemingly coming alive with every beat.
