RUNWAY: Ann Demeulemeester SS19

Ann Demeulemeester is known for its dark romantic clothing and for SS19 the label offered a darker twist: mourners. Though the label doesn't seem to be romanticizing mourning or death, for that matter, the label's aesthetic lends itself to the act of it and with veiled men (and some women) walking down the cream runway clutching black roses, the idea came into focus. The result was not anything new, per se, but more a progression of a viewpoint that has transcended the namesake designer's tenure.
