Fondation Virgil Abloh : Abloh Air prend son envol

2 weeks ago | vogue.fr | Amy Verner

Parmi les nombreuses phrases que Virgil Abloh a répétées suffisamment souvent pour qu'elles deviennent des “ablohismes”, son idée selon laquelle “tout ce que je fais est destiné à la version de moi-même à 17 ans” montre à quel point il était important pour lui d'alimenter les ambitions créatives des jeunes.

Of all the countless lines that Virgil Abloh repeated often enough to become an “Abloh-ism,” his idea that “everything I do is for the 17-year-old version of myself,” made clear how much thought and effort he put into fueling the creative ambitions of young people.

1 month ago | vogue.com | Amy Verner

Welcome back to the runway, Véronique Leroy! Her last show predated Covid to sometime around 2018; she’s continued designing since then, just out of the spotlight. But on the final day of Paris Fashion Week, her official 3:30 pm slot drew a wide swath of insiders who would have been admirers of her precision in distorting a silhouette; her palette that was intriguingly wonky; and most of all, her portrayals of femininity that intentionally interrogated good/bad taste.

CoverageCollectionHow great to find Reese Cooper back in Paris with his namesake collection plus a lookbook he shot himself. The setting is staggering, almost unreal, yet he transported a small crew to this remote location, some three and a half hours north of Los Angeles, where the depth of field is like a California spin on a Renaissance painting. Cooper said he had this exact impression upon driving through last October and knew he had his design direction for the season.
ジャンポール・ゴルチエとルドヴィックドサンセルナン。最上のコンビが織りなす、ひとつのセンシュアリティ【2025年春夏クチュール】

「最高の組み合わせですよ」。妻のミシェル・ラミーと自身のミューズであるモデルのタイロン・ディランを連れ立って会場に現れたリック・オウエンスはそう言った。創業者の引退以来、初めてジャンポール・ゴルチエ（JEAN PAUL GAULTIER）のオートクチュールショーに参加したオウエンスは、今季のゲストデザイナーのルドヴィックドサンセルナン（LUDOVIC DE SAINT SERNIN）が、いかにしてメゾンのレガシーを解釈したかを見届けに来ていた。ゴルチエとド・サン・セルナンからは「どこか同じ色気が漂う」と言うオウエンス。その「色気」とはどのようなものなのか。オウエンス曰く、それは「センシュアルだけれど洗練されていて、みだらだけれど上品な色気」。特にド・サン・セルナンから醸し出されるものはそうだと語った。オウエンスが言うこの「色気」を、ド・サン・セルナンはこの日発表されたコレクションで存分に発揮した。テーマは「Le...

3.Paradis Fall 2025 Menswear Collection

2 months ago | vogue.com | Amy Verner

CoverageCollectionWhen Emeric Tchatchoua was awarded the ANDAM Special Prize last June for his label, 3.Paradis, the ceremony took place on a summery evening at the Palais Royal. Flash forward to this show, held in the bowels of a research building, where faux snow covered the ground of a dark, cavernous room. The blizzard-like scene, reminiscent of winters when the designer lived in Montreal, was more inhospitable than his lively and well-executed looks deserved.
