Matières Fécales are not only further evidence that anything can sound chic in French. This is also the next little thing for Paris Fashion. A little bit smaller is necessary because the founding couple Hannah Rose Dalton and Steven Raj Bhaskaran first met in Montreal’s Pattern Cutting School a decade ago, and they shaped a “post-human aesthetic” that is as much as alienation and as seemingly alien. Becoming a niche is the center.
Paris has established a public force of conventional misunderstandings to support the couple in two salon performances at the Le Marois this afternoon. Those creepy contact lenses are a cent for the crowded human bounty behind the front door: more than North Nord’s platform. Meanwhile, after the first show, he slipped into a van, the godfather of the scene’s horror and a longtime supporter of Dalton and the Bascalans, Rick Owens and Michele Lamy. When asked about her comment, Rami lowered her thumbs and exposed her teeth.
The designer cited McQueen along with Owens and image maker Nick Knight to quote McQueen as the chief fashion hero (Daphne Guinness gave his blessing today). These effects are evident in a series open with strict darts, solid black wool tailors, whose grooved sleeves are zipped for additional expression. The ragged knitted bread and light toast feel pain and impressive structure. The coat features an emphasis collar with a D-ring for padlocks or belts.
There is a handbag with its half-tube top line resonating with the tailor’s shoulders. More platforms, McQueen is reminiscent of, produced in collaboration with Christian Louboutin: His scarlet sole never seemed to be more appropriate. Evening gowns with welt-like diagonal cuts on the chest, classic-shaped gowns, mummy packed by fabric, Dalton’s closed winged spirit wedding gown, some fanatical denim and savage Guinness-fitting faux fur, which is the extra body in this show.
Rich mixed actors wear bread that the couple has become famous for unique makeup art realizing. “Many people from the cast are exactly the same as us. And, you know, we are a small community, but a lot of us are interested in posthuman aesthetics. At the same time, we all help each other and have the courage, especially during this time.” The applause that caused at the end of this show was very human. It’s a powerful debut starting with an entity, and once it starts exploring the idea more thoroughly beyond its inspiration, it should become even stronger.
