START

As long as there has been clothes, there has been haute couture, an act itself that pre-dates its name, which became official sometime in mid-19th century Paris. Literally the translation for “dress making,” the process insists on fragile, hand-made construction from start to finish. It’s a delicate craft—perhaps the last touch of magic in modern fashion as we know it. For this Spring/Summer 2018 special photographer Alexandra Von Fuerst and stylist Viola Galassi subvert these conventions, exposing the cold contrast where ice meets fire, metal meets silk. Creating abstractions as an environment, the duo offer their statement with the most precious gowns of the season.
