AW21

Anthony Vaccarello points at a big and bolshy return to luxury for the French house’s AW21 collection.

Riccardo Tisci’s latest offering is elegant, eccentric and empowered in equal measure. “Undoubtedly one of his strongest collections yet,” writes Daisy Woodward.

Hedi Slimane presented an electric womenswear show, set against the idyllic backdrop of the Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte, near Paris.

Felipe Oliveira Baptista’s vision for a post-pandemic future is optimistically club-ready, embracing every colour of the rainbow and capturing the exuberant spirit of Kenzō Takada’s design legacy.

This season, LOVERBOY embraces the darkness of the past year in Gloom, while yearning for the dancefloors rooted in the London brand’s DNA.

One for the die hard fans, the designer’s AW21 collection references his sci-fi past in oversized knitwear and impeccable tailoring. But his style diktats are, as ever, filtering downwards to define the next youth culture movement.
