Rick Owens

Taking over the Palais de Tokyo fountain once again for Paris Fashion Week, Rick Owens shared his eponymous label’s Spring/Summer 2023 collection. Titled “EDFU,” the site of the Ptolemaic Temple of Horus, the range follows the designer’s recent vacation in Egypt. Inspired by the movement of Egypt’s cultural aesthetic that remained for millennia despite the long passing of its creators, Owens further reflected on his place in fashion.

Titled “Strange Math,” the runway was an exploration of imagination and reality, kicking off with a marching band performance from the Florida A&M University in Tallahassee, Florida.

He began with chanting “Virgil,” following up with some of his tracks including “N95.”

“It’s about a balance of decoration and simplicity. An ageless sense of freedom to play, as we rediscover the luxury of free time,” explains Miss. Fendi. The collection reflects on the free time many search for, pulling from the great outdoors to offer colors such as melon and indigo to ochre, putty, cornflower blue and silver-gray. 

VERSACE

Built around existing in-between unexpected juxtapositions, the Spring/Summer 2023 collection is an expression of “fun and formal, bravado and sensitivity, Baroque and pop.”

Stemming from his love for literature, Etro celebrates poetry as a utopia, composed of sentimental verses as a way of shaping chaos.
