Lena Hoschek S/S 2015 Berlin Fashion Week
Graphic and diverse pin ups. Strong textiles with vintage shapes and a heavy emphasis on accessories including, sunglasses,head wraps and big hoop earrings. This show followed the motto “More is more” but it still ended up looking fine. Reminiscent of the recent Giamattista Valli Haute Couture show in Paris they both had a vintage throwback feel. With the Lena Hoschek show being a bit more severe in styling, color and shapes. source:

UNIF S/S 2014 Lookbook, 90’s Beach Punk
The styling leans heavily into nostalgia without becoming costume. Scrunchies reappear without irony. Tie-dye shows up soft and worn, more personal than performative. Platform shoes ground the looks with weight, while knitwear is casually thrown over dresses as if styled in motion rather than planned. Nothing feels precious. Everything feels instinctive.
