Rahul Mishra’s Haute Couture inspired by Art

Inspired by real life art this dazzling collection pays homage to Gustav Klimt’s most iconic muses, Emilie Flöge (1874–1952) and Adele Bloch-Bauer (1881–1925).

Rahul translated the immortal portraits into a series of breathtaking, hand-crafted couture looks, perfectly reimagining Klimt’s interesting use of prints and patterns into real life textural gowns.

Maison Margiela’s Iconic Debut

Who needs to see the models’ faces on a runway? Certainly not us!

Creative Director Glenn Martens, debuted a collection with Maison Margiela in style. Each look featured a matching couture mask, which fully covered the models face.
