Into the Multisex multiverse

Projects developed in art school often remain at a level of mere imagination, grand and contained in their realm of possibility. That’s how Multisex was initially bred – a scholarly, design-focused project conceived by a bunch of students. With a bit of will and a shared devotion to communion, house music, and sensuality, it exceeded what many would have left in a state of hypothesis. Meet Marilena Büld, Vicky Abiola, Steph Quinci and Dario Jérôme Dammé, some of the sparkling minds behind one of Berlin’s most prolific curatorial expanses.

Is Balenciaga coming full circle?

Inheriting the legacy of a brand like Balenciaga is like climbing a mountain in pursuit of a new peak; definitely not for the faint hearted – or at least not for the humdrum. This upcoming season, we place our full attention (and bets) on the eponymous brand’s new heir.
