In an age where everything has been subsumed by global sameness, something essential to the idea of territories has become a ghost of its former self. To present a collection in a territory is to enter a relationship with a place. The globalized world may veil this connection but for me, the territory is not merely a backdrop—instead, it is fundamental to my work—it holds its history and mine within this relationship.
This collection is my response to the dissolution of territory. My work seeks to recover that which has been forgotten but never lost. My Spring/Summer 2025 collection is a return to a time when fashion was not a commodity but a craft grounded in the city’s being. In this way I try to bring a fresh air of something old and irrelevant as There is no now in this collection; it is what is yet to come from the past that never was.
I miss a place I have never been to, yet it pulls me back toward something I cannot fully grasp. It’s as if a past haunts me I have never lived in, yet its absence shapes me. I feel an undeniable pull toward a Paris I have never known—a city that exists only in fragments of memory and imagination. In this collection, I seek to give life to a past that never existed, to evoke a profound nostalgia for a city I have never indeed inhabited but which somehow belongs to me.” – Yonathan Carmel

Living Color: A two-look meditation on chromatic extremity, with supermodel Aweng Chuol as the vessel for the story. Architectural restraint meets maximalist spectacle, color rendered as art and identity. Look one is maximalist saturation — rainbow-foiled hair, iridescent violet lips, and a sequined sculptural skirt by AndreDNA set against confetti and candy-colored ballons. Look two
There’s something almost comical about everyone suddenly pretending they were MySpace power users. I’ll be honest—I never actually had one. Or at least not one worth talking about. I somehow convinced my friends I did because, at the time, admitting you weren’t on MySpace felt like showing up to school without the right shoes. Still,
