Pairs Project is an upcoming annual magazine com culture almanac. With a strict photography code taking inspiration from the filmmaking in adherence with Dogme ’95 taking out the saturated fats in fashion. It offers a new take on what’s happening now rather than looking to the future and waiting for trends to be confirmed while denouncing consumption and the fast pace that the industry is riding.
The project is full of no’s from no make-up, no models, no hair, no digital, no post production, no advertising, to no credits. Each photographer was only given one roll of 35mm film to shoot their whole story. On closer inspection, we are introduced to emerging young brands listed only as “participants’ such as Alex Mullins, Aloe, Apple Core, Duran Lantink, Ferrari Concept, Icosae, Neith Nyer, along with NACO PARIS the long reigning punk of France’s underground fashion and skateboard label WERUSH.
Marking the brand’s evolution to an established house in the Parisian fashion landscape, FW21 is Y/PROJECT’s largest, most ambitious collection to date.
The collection explores the aesthetics of real experiences close to designer Archie Alled-Martinez revisiting the foundations of the brand and recalling the key terms that shape its spirit: daringness, comfort, and a rather cheeky elegance.

To mark the 20th anniversary of Henrik Vibskov leaving Central St Martins in 2001 to start his own business, the FW21 collection is celebrating with cake.
For Loewe‘s FW21 collection, creative director Jonathan Anderson maintains contained expression and a light spirit with clean silhouettes and precise cuts.
