Shrouded in theatre, the MUGLER Fall Winter 2024 co-ed collection designed by Casey Cadwallader harks back to look forward. A majestic gesture plunged into darkness, the Lycee Carnot sets the stage for savage opulence: sliced, sculpted and shivering on the body, garments glorify bold characters and arching volumes. From behind a dissolving architecture of kabuki curtains, assertive silhouettes emerge in satin, velvet and techno fur in shaded black or jewel tones of lemon, scarlet and wine. Playing both dense and diaphanous, the House codes are revisited - pointy collars raze the décolleté, metal exaggerates the hip, dresses peel off the body and buckle to the bone.
