Founded by designers Shukri Lawrence and Omar Braika, Trashy Clothing has built a reputation as an “anti-luxury luxury” label that uses satire, contradiction, and storytelling to challenge fashion’s traditional codes. This season marked their Paris Fashion Week debut with their Fall/Winter 2026 collection “In Divine Trust” staged at the Institut du Monde Arabe. It was sexy, fun, lots of fez , male cracks (at least from my angle) and rooted in Palestinian identity shaped by the designers’ experiences in the region and diaspora. The debut didn’t shy away from bringing Trashy Clothing’s politically charged, concept-driven approach to one of fashion’s biggest stages.

The brand often explores themes of power, occupation, and cultural memory through provocative silhouettes and symbolic details. For Fall they reflected on the subtle tensions of daily life under occupation, where ordinary routines unfold alongside systems of control while inspired in part by Divine Intervention by artist Elia Suleiman. They also introduced a collaboration with Mia Khalifa’s jewellery brand Sheytan, whose sword-inspired jewelry ran throughout the collection.

Jewelry from Sheytan functions as structure and protection. Sword forms repeat across the body, joining as one.” Explained the designers in the show’s notes.

If the runway is usually about fantasy, Trashy Clothing, as crazy and whimsical as it sounds, brought us closer to reality refracted through irony and wit. In a world where fashion is all about playing it safe for a commercial drive, the collection was a reminder that fashion can still be a space for contradiction whether glamorous and political or playful yet pointed.
