Mothers and Railway Traffic – Day 3 of BFW

MARKE

MARKE staged its collection "Everything That Stays Is Love" in the historic Villa Elisabeth. In three textile acts, designer Mario Keine dealt with the themes of youth, grief and decay. In the beginning, flowing silhouettes, soft draping and delicate embellishments shone in shades of green and gold, before the colour palette increasingly darkened - until the decay finally set in with oversized shirts and roughly cut bows. With this collection, Mario Keine once again combines excellent craftsmanship with conceptual depth and leaves a lasting impression.

Lou de Bètoly

Lou de Bètoly's show took place in the historic Spiegelsaal at Clärchens Ballhaus, where a solitary grand piano at the center of the stage set the mood for the collection. In what emerged as perhaps her most ethereal collection to date, the designer presented a provocative yet light-hearted dialogue with haute couture traditions. The forty looks, each crafted from pre-owned materials, embody an intuitive approach with a fastidious attention to detail. Forgotten treasures were transformed into contemporary pieces that conveyed both drama and luxury.

Richert Beil

The AW25 runway show "Mutter" by Richert Beil uses the image of exhausted, overburdened mothers as a metaphor for a weary and overwhelmed society. Jale Richert and Michele Beil presented the collection with a combination of soft knitwear and latex looks, along with a mix of sharp silhouettes and oversized outerwear. Through these contrasts, a visual narrative was created, reflecting the pressure of expectations, constant strain, and the fast pace of modern life.

HADERLUMP

At the end of the second day, the guests took a historic S-Bahn directly to the S-Bahn depot in Schöneweide, where HADERLUMP presented the "SOLIVAGANT" collection. Inspired by the railway passengers of the mid-20th century, the collection became a nostalgic journey into the past, which told the individual stories of the passengers with its fashion and at the same time was able to bring it stylistically into the year 2025. The label placed a special focus on bags, suitcases, coats and blazers.
