Marcel Ostertag
On Friday evening, Marcel Ostertag presented his AW25 collection "Insomnia" at the Uber Eats Music Hall. His designs capture the restless energy of late seventies nightlife—reinterpreted and skilfully catapulted into the present day.
Marc Cain
Marc Cain chose the old power station in Köpenicker Straße as the perfect backdrop for the collection "A Parallel Universe". The concrete walls were artfully illuminated in purple, transporting guests into a world where reality and fantasy blur.
OBS
For its debut at Berlin Fashion Week, the Bavarian brand OBS transforms the historic St. Elisabeth Church into an immersive performance. Shaped by formative experiences on construction sites alongside their father, Johannes and Matthias Schweizer approach textiles and accessories with a deep understanding of craftsmanship through an essentialist lens: each piece serves its function while unfolding creative potential. Characterised by clean lines, deliberately placed elements, and coordinated details, OBS reinterprets workwear in a new way.
Swarovski Celebrity Collection Launch
Swarovski presents the ARIANA GRANDE X SWAROVSKI capsule collection at Soho House Berlin during Berlin Fashion Week. In a relaxed atmosphere, the collection celebrated a love of music and the art of timeless style.
COLRS
Inspired by the legendary Mille Miglia and the childhood dream of many boys to become a racing driver, COLRS presented the menswear collection "Pace of Life". To the sound of passing cars, the label sent looks down the runway at the DITTRICH & Schlechtriem Gallery, cleverly combining motorsport elements such as start numbers and the black-and-white chequered flag with ready-to-wear pieces and classic tailoring. The result was a multifaceted collection—ranging from casual T-shirts to elegant suits—that translated the style of great racing legends of the past into the present day.
SF1OG
Rosa Marga Dahl and Jacob Langemeyer of SF1OG presented their new collection in the legendary setting of Halle am Berghain, offering a modern reinterpretation of the term "uniform"—a symbol of rebellion and individuality—infused with an Indie Sleaze aesthetic. Inspired by subcultures of the rock and indie scene, the latest collection is defined by a sleeker silhouette, enhanced with leather appliqués, late 2000s shutter shades, and a precise, minimalist colour palette.
SVEASØN
With a captivating performance, Svea Beckedorf staged the debut collection "MØLYBDØMANCY" for her label SVEASØN. Crafted from deadstock fabrics and sustainable materials, the gender-neutral pieces—designed for all body types—were styled into layered looks by the Hamburg-based designer. Dancers moved to hypnotic sounds between oversized sculptures, gradually removing, rearranging, and ultimately dressing the metal figures with the garments. Inspired primarily by the tradition of lead pouring, this theme was reflected in metallic accents, reflective elements, and tie-dye patterns, as unpredictable as the shapes formed by molten lead.

Maria Chany
Maria Chany's collection is a creative exploration of waste as a resource—"ELYSIUM", a reimagined afterlife for garments. The collection envisions a world where waste becomes fashion and sustainability merges with art. It represents a future in which environmental awareness and creativity coexist in perfect harmony.
