SøEdited Team: SøCreative Director: Chris Saint Sims SøFashion Director: Savannah Barthorpe Body forming to the max expertly achieved with Theunissen SS24 collection. A punchy pastel pallet at the edge of neon is a breath away from the loved striking catwalk musts, but with this collection an edge away from neon was a favoured surprise. Toped with glossy whites and jet blacks, eyes were on stalks! Between structure and fluidity, work of silhouettes and striking colors, highlights the body of the woman with unexpected cuts, the goal being to create a sexy wardrobe. The precise work of the cuts and the choice of material of the clothes allows to follow the body's curves, highlighting the shape and the silhouette of the one who wears the creations. Indeed, the second skin is the driving line of this collection while maintening her artistic direction inspired by the 80s, giving birth to hourglass silhouettes, XXL shoulders and mini waistes.
SøEdited Team: SøCreative Director: Chris Saint Sims SøFashion Director: Savannah Barthorpe Cultivating a crossover between feminine and masculine, both sexes are intwined in the fluidity of JU-NNA dreamy sculptural collection for SS24.

Full Metal Dandy. Inspired by black metal music and researching some of the first black metal bands in Norway, metal iconography and satanic symbolism. Dai collected some video data, and explored why many Satanist metal fans usually wear suits and cloaks paying particular attention to the ways they were worn. His silhouette is a reference to the cape of a Norwegian shepherd and is further combined with menswear tropes of the Dandy & the Flâneur. Playing with nails as an iconic symbol, Dai transforms his garments into living sculptures that are visually recognisable within the genre. They are a construction technique to create seams and connect the rich painted and waxed fabrics that make up the collections textural vision.

Clothes of Diabolik. Yuchen Yuan was inspired by iconic 1960’s Italian film, ‘Danger : Diabolik’. Through an exploration of the villain figure in Diabolik,Yuchen played with ideas of duality in classic menswear looks combined with a mysterious muse figure and notions of sexuality and surrealism. The 1960’s silhouettes are exaggerated at certain parts of the body, such as shoulder and chest, to emphasize and present a hypermasculine shape that has always been at the core of her practice.

LELE: @lelelelelin
Tchotchkes. American slang referring to small shiny objects that’s only decorative and not functional defines the concept of Lele’s collection. Inspired by extravagant visuals from the 1920’s, specifically the photography series ‘bright young thing’ by Cecil Beaton, a world of self-indulgent and extreme elegance, hedonism formed her muse. Characters from the group present themselves wearing extremely fitted tailored suits and ties, glossy hair, juxtaposed with sequin dresses and ruffled shirts challenging menswear identities. Exploring contrast and duality, Lele investigates traditional menswear garments including the trench coat and tailored blazer with elongated silhouettes. In order to evoke the glamour and decadence in a contemporary way, garments are embossed with real pearls and gem necklaces creating Trompe-l’œil effects through techniques developed using vacuum forming technology, then re-embellished over to create a multifaceted look.

But it didn't stop at the fabrics. Enter Brighton-based painter Emma Stone-Johnson, whose canvases came to life on the very fabric itself, her brushstrokes a dynamic symphony of fluid lines and lyrical strokes. It was an artistic expression that transcended mere clothing; it embodied love, unity, creativity, and the very essence of self-expression.
And the crowning glory? Bespoke headpieces, crafted with an otherworldly touch by the visionary milliner-to-the-A-list, Piers Atkinson.
Behind the scenes, an alchemical team curated by the show's creators worked their magic. Makeup and hair artists painted heavenly faces and adorned models with wigs and hairpieces in a breathtaking array of :. Pink freckles, azure brows, two-toned lips and cheeks that sang with vibrancy-it was an artist’s palette come to life.
And as the audience, models, and creatives backstage gathered in jubilant unison, a palpable feeling of togetherness and unbridled fun permeated the air.
Not too shabby for a debut collection, wouldn't you say?
