The Belgian designer finally held his highly-anticipated, postponed Spring 2023 runway on Friday.
finally made his highly-anticipated London runway debut on Friday, and let's just say: You'll definitely want to break out in a dance after this.
Held at a bar-turned-catwalk situation at South London's Printworks nightclub, Simons' Spring 2023 debut for his namesake label had about 1,000 onlookers packed into the venue to watch models strut out on a set of bar tables towering over them — appropriate, since the collection itself has a slew of office-to-party-ready silhouettes with an exhilarating contemporary take.
Throwback pieces like vibrant neon leggings seen from the '80s, for instance, are layered under itty bitty mini skirts and tiny shorts. Simons nods at the '90s U.K. garage scene with fishnet tanks, printed graphic tees and sleeveless vests. He also fuses in pop-punk elements, incorporating spliced leather jackets and phrases like "Let's Drink the Sea and Dance" and "Station" on vests and skirts.
