During Paris Fashion Week, Fabrics Interseason did not hold a typical fashion show. Instead of focusing on the upcoming fall season, Fabrics Interseason provided a carte blanche for stylist Samuel Drira and Encens Magazine. Drira was invited to go through the Fabrics Interseason archives and select pieces from the last ten years. The presentation of the past collections perfectly framed the gradual graceful evolution of Fabrics Interseason from loose and unrestrained silhouettes to sharp structured pieces. The show serves as the perfect momentum for the fall collection, which will show in Paris during Women’s Fashion Week in March.
Landscape with the Fall of Icarus
William Carlos Williams
According to Brueghel
when Icarus fell
it was spring
a farmer was ploughing
his field
the whole pageantry
of the year was
awake tingling
with itself
sweating in the sun
that melted
the wings’ wax
unsignificantly
off the coast
there was
a splash quite unnoticed
this was
Icarus drowning

On his relationship with Agyness Deyn:
“I’m not stupid. I know that Agyness being a muse and friend has helped get my brand out there because she garners so much attention, but it’s not a contrived fashion friendship. We’ll get ready together in our apartment and she’ll be on the toilet while I’m in the shower. We’ve been friends since we were 13. We’re from the same village. Where I live now is a flat we own together – we moved in together when I was 19 and then she moved to New York about three years later.” – Henry Holland
