RUNWAY: GmbH FW18
Politics and fashion are not mutually exclusive. Fashion is, after all, a form of art and art is often a reaction to the current state of society. With this in mind,
GmbH's FW18 collection was a reaction, in part, to the tumultuous political climate from nationalism to nuclear war to human rights issues. GmbH named its FW18 collection "The Modern Dark Ages" and this trope can be seen in chainmail tops and embroidered leather, like one would see in a period piece on soldiers, while the label's signature PVC pants added a modern and lurid thread that pieced together the past and the present, as well as the brand's identity and the outside world.
