@pieter_mulier’s collection for @maisonalaia served up a study in contrasts – hard and soft, structure and fluidity, past and future. Set within the maison’s atelier, the models wove around @mark.manders’ fragmented, time-worn artworks.“Each of his sculptures is a work in progress or marked by the passage of an imaginary time, reminiscent of many different cultures. And that idea of a non-linearity – of space and time – was inspiring,” said the designer. “The idea of codes of beauty outside any era or geography, free of boundaries, is innately keyed to the philosophy of Alaïa, our identity.”  The collection featured monastic looks with padded hoods that created a halo effect around models’ heads while sheer mesh clung to angular figures, creating an alien-esque mood. Bulging reptilian spines, which were actually elongated 3D ruffs or padded tubing, snaked around shoulders and necks. Curious crinolines jutted out at the hip, their exaggerated volume cascading into fluid pleats. Sharp colour-blocking added edge, while shaggy faux-fur coats wrapped the body in cocoon-like softness. Leather-fringe skirts swayed like exoskeletons and layered silhouettes mirrored “the topography of the female form”.  Mulier described the collection as a meditation on history, geography and, above all, women. “The message is about singularity, individuality and the eternal strength and resilience of women, empowering them through their clothes.” Here, lensed by @nick_knight, model @col.thedoll looks heroic in such statuesque designs. Her journey from growing up in a suppressed Mormon town in Utah to becoming one of the most in-demand beauties to take to the catwalk is one of strength and courage.

Val Garland - @thevalgarland media

25 YEARS OF 10 MAGAZINE  Introducing 10 Magazine Issue 75 –  BIRTHDAY, EVOLVE, TRANSFORMATION – out September 15. We’re celebrating our silver anniversary with our biggest issue to date, totalling at 764 pages including a special Watches and Jewellery supplement.  It has been an unprecedented year of change. Fashion, beauty and creativity are transforming at such speeds against a backdrop of political and social upheaval. Old certainties, structures and systems are crumbling. New ones are emerging.   The discussion we felt most compelled to have was about the unjust marginalisation and victimisation of the trans community. What our founder and Global Editor-in-Chief, Sophia Neophitou-Apostolou, felt strongly about was creating a platform to encourage a strong sense of community. “I wanted to give a powerful and positive platform to trans people in an era where they are subject to fear and uncertainty,” she says.  Across the issue, experience the roll call of incredible leading creative talents, who have shared our journey over the past 25 years. Favourite contributors from the past quarter century back are welcomed back onto our pages: @mario_sorrenti, @nick_knight, @juergentellerstudio, @richardburbridge, @cedric_buchet and @vanina_sorrenti all lens portfolios. Here, photographed by Knight and styled by @annatrevelyan, model @col.thedoll looks heroic in the statuesque designs of @pieter_mulier’s @maisonalaia Summer Autumn 2025 collection.
