The models at the heart of McQueen’s AW25 campaign move between restraint and release, reworking Victorian Gothic codes with silk georgette, raw lace, sharp tailoring and black lacquered leather. Photographed and directed by Glen Luchford, the campaign channels the spirit of 19th-century provocateurs, Wilde, Tilley & Brooks, whose ideas on identity and expression still resonate today. Seán McGirr: “The collection was rooted in the uncompromising self-expression of independent thinkers, exploring the tension between tradition and transgression.” #AlexanderMcQueen #McQueen #GlenLuchford #SeanMcGuire #AlexConsani

DIGITAL EXCLUSIVE Femme Forte by @sandraseaton Strength isn’t always loud. It isn’t always what we expect. Too often strength is seen as something unfeminine but there’s deep beauty in the strong woman. Women are complex, multi-faceted beings. Power and softness can coexist. Resilience doesn’t cancel out tenderness. True feminine beauty isn’t just in how a woman looks it lives in her presence, her depth, and her strength.

This is Cassyette. From Essex DJ to genre-defying alt star, @cassyette’s journey is anything but typical. Influenced by Slipknot, hair metal and goth style since age eleven, she’s built a sound that’s raw, emotional, and loud as hell. Her latest album This World Still Fucking Sucks channels grief, chaos and power into something defiant. Now, she’s launched Degenerette, a queer goth club night in Brighton serving techno, drag, and leather-clad catharsis. Whether screaming over distorted guitars or serving looks inspired by McQueen and Rick Owens, Cassyette is reshaping alt music for the nu-gen era, and she’s just getting started.

What we're reading 📖 Photography @charliebiglin Interview @hannahelizabethelwell We sat down with Charlie Biglin to talk about his new book Greatest Yarmouth, a photo series shot during the first UK lockdown in his hometown of Great Yarmouth. With the town paused and emptied, Charlie turned his camera on the stillness, faded charm, and quiet transformation of the British seaside. Influenced by ‘90s/‘00s music, fashion, and visual culture, the work is steeped in nostalgia. Each hand-printed image is a personal reflection on memory, youth, and the changing identity of place which offers a tender portrait of a town caught between past and future.
