SS26 POIESIS PT. II

For SS26, Xaris Project draws inspiration from brutalist architecture and the work of Tadao Ando, especially his ideas around space and light. Concrete - often seen as cold and heavy - becomes a symbol in the collection, balanced by fluid shapes, curves, and asymmetry in the garments.

Even though it’s a spring collection, the materials are purposefully weighty, echoing the lasting presence of architecture. From raw steer leather to stiff washi paper and milk-protein cotton, nothing feels fleeting. “We’re exploring the contrast between structure and lightness,” says designer K. Even the more relaxed fabrics, like h**p and Okayama denim, are cut with sharp precision - leaning into clean, geometric lines.

Named after the Greek idea of chiasm – where opposites intersect – the label continues to craft hybrid silhouettes that feel both architectural and human.

BREAKING NEWS - stops it’s operation per July.

The brand just announced:
“We are writing to inform you of a difficult but necessary decision: We have decided to close the Boris Bidjan Saberi production company and its whole operation structure at the end of July 2025.

This decision was the result of deep reflection due to increasing manufacturing difficulties, which make it unviable to continue production under the current conditions and configuration.

The reality is clear: under current conditions and without relocating production, it is impossible for us to maintain operations with the standards of quality, integrity, and consistency that have always been the foundation of our project. We deeply appreciate the support and trust you have shown us over the years. Boris Bidjan Saberi has not left. This closure is not the end of the road, but a transformation. Boris’s vision, aesthetic, and spirit will continue, in other forms, in other formats, and under new structures that allow for greater exploration without compromising the essence of the brand.”

Another pioneer closing down, what are your thoughts?

YOHJI VS RICK OWENS

If both were released today, which one would you choose?

In our opinion two every similar shoes, both in collab with adidas.

The Y-3 S-Gendo’s were released in March last year with great success and a noteworthy details such as the air gap in the middle. The avant-garde design is both sporty and high fashion.

The Rick Owens x Adidas Tech Runners were released back in 2015 when Rick Owens continued his groundbreaking 2nd collab. Though newer releases may have overshadowed it, true design excellence stands the test of time.

Fall/Winter 2025 was a fusion of alpine practicality and the brand’s signature deconstructed tailoring.

The collection balanced two worlds: the utilitarianism of winter sportswear, featuring fur, ski masks, outwear and and the precision of hybrid tailoring with exposed and layered collars, elongated silhouettes, and masterful fabric contrasts.

Interplay of form and fabrication allowed the same silhouettes to take on entirely different identities. The collaboration with Carhartt was great, where Sacai’s signature approach to reconstruction met the workwear utilitarian codes.

Loved this one.

For Fall-Winter 2025, delivered a collection that was unexpected.

This season, Yohji embraced practicality in a way rarely seen from him, presenting puffer jackets and coats that stood in contrast to his usual draping and deconstructed tailoring.

His idea for this collection was to redefine the perception of down-filled outerwear, making it sophisticated enough to complement a suit yet functional enough to endure the cold. With this, Yohji sought refinement, opting for more streamlined silhouettes.

The materials told a different story. Synthetic fabrics dominated, marking a noticeable departure from his usual textural richness. For longtime followers of Yohji Yamamoto, this collection may have felt unfamiliar, even
disorienting.

But it’s cool to see his effort in changing our perspective on puffers.

Would you wear these?

Rick Owens returns with a new version of the Megalace Pentagram sneaker. This time in collaboration with Moncler, it’s called the Trail Grip sneaker.

The Trail Grip sneakers have a vibram megagrip sole to give them, you guessed it, more grip. It’s an old shape in a new sole.

Come with us backstage at Fall-Winter 2025

Taakk continues to integrate hybrid constructions that merge styles and materials, something we really like from them. This season, panther and tiger prints are seamlessly embedded into fabrics, redefining their perception in a more sophisticated context.

Standout pieces include a tracksuit jacket (image 2) that blends blazer elements with a silk-like velvet texture, as well as a printed shirt (image 11) that transitions into a leather-like material, creating a seamless yet structured silhouette.

Another highlight is a bomber jacket (image 7) that gradually shifts into an oversized blazer, balancing formalwear with a relaxed, street-influenced aesthetic.

The backstage images, exclusively captured for us by photographer Zlata Lisova , bring these intricate details into sharper focus. The textures, material transitions, and precise constructions become even more apparent in these shots, offering a closer look at Taakk’s craftsmanship.

FW25

Some collections feel deeply personal, and FW25 is one of them. Not only the lookbook which was shot in India, but also the private dinner that he organized to celebrate his first book named AMDAVAD.

This season, Kartik went hiking in the Himalayas, this hiking trip led to an unexpected revelation. Watching a sherpa dressed entirely in natural fibers sparked a thought—why do we separate traditional craft from everyday wear? That question became the foundation of this collection.

Collaborating with weavers in Uttarakhand and Himachal, Kartik crafted naturally dyed wool, brushed into fleece-like textures for outerwear, and handwoven Khadi linen and wool, which softens over time. Tailored pieces nod to 90s Yohji Yamamoto and early 2000s Comme des Garçons, with his take on the “weird suit”, where unconventional proportions replace rigid function. The earthy palette, nearly all naturally dyed, keeps the collection grounded, while intricate hand embroidery adds a delicate layer of artistry—each piece carrying the imprint of the artisan’s hands.

is the new creative director of Maison Margiela.

This didn’t come as a surprise to us, if anyone would be suiting for it, it would be Glenn. Very curious what he will pull off for the first collection.

IM Men’s FW25 collection, “Fly with IM Men,” hit Paris with a bang, and we loved to see it after catching a glimpse in the Tokyo store last November.

Back then, the IM Men collection already impressed us from a quality vs price perspective, but seeing it on the Paris runway took things to another level.

The collection was split into seven capsules, each bringing its own vibe. Fly gave us adaptable silhouettes, Flat Drape focused on clean folds, and Wall delivered bold, sculptural outerwear.

What really stood out, though, was the materials. Plant-based Ultrasuede in Heron, eco-friendly nylon in Switch, and synthetic sheepskin in Metallic Ultra Boa brought a fresh, sustainable edge to the designs.

Combined with monochrome palettes and thoughtful layers, it’s exactly the kind of timeless yet forward-thinking design we love to see from Issey Miyake.

Interesting to see this.

Seems like and CdG were working on the same thing, at the same time. As Rombaut published this after the CdG show.

Seems like Rombaut was working on it at the same time, and panicked dropped when they saw CdG publishing a similar concept. As it’s almost impossible to copy such a design within a day notice, so is this really coincidence? What do you think?
