mission accomplished
, she is basically part Lara Croft, part model. “What are you gonna make me do this time?” she asked Casey Cadwallader, as she slithered into his latest second-skin illusion wear for the fall/winter 2021 show film, which dropped on October 27 in line with the brand’s see-now, buy-now model.
The final fun Torso Solutions production – all wild camera angles and morph suits – belies the sheer volume of work that went into it. Hadid, along with Amber Valletta, Jill Kortleve, and Lola Leon, walked on treadmills, jumped off plinths, and threw themselves into the arms of stagehands to create the runway spectacle that breaks the fourth wall. Its premise? To harness the power of the models’ gaze to connect with customers and draw them into the Mugler world. Mission accomplished.
“The power comes from the [casting],” says Casey of his Mugler family. “These people are self-confident, self-realized, and brave; when you ask everyone to jump off a box, they have to be pretty fearless.” His bold looks surely inspire courageousness. “I have created a completely opaque catsuit; everyone should be very proud of me,” he smiles of his latest shapewear triumph.
The highlights are the corsets made, in part, from a new fabric Cadwallader calls “techno jersey”. “It’s this weird sort of part velvet, part vinyl, amazingly shiny, stretchy fabric,” says Casey of “ultrasonically bonding” the waist-cinchers to make them wearable. “It’s like a total science class,” he says, gleefully. The jewelry, however, is pure high-octane glamour.
To sum up, “Sexy is officially back,” quips Casey who sees the growing number of young brands entering his sphere as a thrilling challenge to push himself further. In terms of deliverability, Mugler is miles ahead of the pack. “I just want to connect the client to that moment of desire,” he says of the immediacy of his work Stunts aside, that’s impressive.
