Paris Fashion Week is kicking off the runway Tuesday with the highly anticipated upcoming collection by EGONLAB who will also be joining the new edition of TRANOÏ Men, alongside Gunther, and Recoded by Aalto who will also be presenting during fashion week. This is looking to be one of the most exciting editions to date, especially as it is teaming up with London Show Rooms and a partnership with Portugal Fashion. Many of our favorite brands from last summer’s edition are back including David Tlale, denzilpatrik, ISNURH, and many more.
Fall/Winter will also see a strong focus on outerwear in addition to the continual gender-fluid dialogue in a consumer-based industry that is rigidly built around gender binaries. Many of the designers carry the message that nothing is cooler than being your authentic self, whether new tailoring or upcycled, and that seems to be the key trend of not only the season but probably the decade. As buyers and consumers are also become more skeptical of the impact of fashion, fifty designers were carefully selected by TRANOÏ and the Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode (FHCM) organizer of Paris Fashion Week® that express the beliefs of the generation, with that in mind, we have the lineup for you here:
