Backstage at DAGGER: Berlin Fashion Week's teenage dirtbags

Summer is a separate lifetime when you’re sixteen, defined by that completely unjustified feeling of being invincible. Sleep feels irrelevant, any resemblance of nutrition even more so, and a random field becomes a great place to spend the night. Before your frontal cortex clocks in for work, everything tastes sweeter and every mistake feels necessary. Luke Rainey bottles that state in Lifestyles of the Bored and Disenfranchised, his latest DAGGER show at Berlin Fashion Week. Drawing from his youth in a small town in Northern Ireland, the collection returns to one of adolescence’s most underrated feelings: boredom. That specific boredom that itches and inevitably mutates into chaos. There is nothing to do, so everything happens.

Georgy Dendoe doesn’t even drink soda, but he loves painting their cans

Georgy Dendoe is the Amsterdam-based multidisciplinary artist. Best known as GRGY from the super influential Dutch hip-hop group SMIB, he’s also now delving into childhood and pop-culture nostalgia, one tin can at a time. In between rapping, producing, and co-running the collective, Georgy has recently ventured into a new territory his artistic mind hadn’t yet explored: painting (cans, this time around).

MAGI MERLIN for Glamcult #144 THE NOISE ISSUE

Inside the world of Eilish Constance

At seventeen, Eilish Constance is taking career advice from mediums, cemeteries, and flickering lamps.

SLIMFIT

Slimfit takes us from Amsterdam to Paramaribo, Durban, Luanda and back again without ever letting the energy drop with her infectious set. A bubbling rhythm gives way to hard drum, Gqom crashes into hardgroove, baile funk locks into techno, and every shift feels less like a genre switch than a reminder that club music has always travelled. Drawing from their Chinese, Surinamese and Dutch heritage alongside a deep engagement with diasporic dance cultures, Slimfit treats the dancefloor as a place where sounds, histories and bodies come together in sweaty resistance.

SOLOMUN for Glamcult #144, THE NOISE ISSUE

Backstage at Ziggy Chen SS27

The poised quietness of Ziggy Chen’s SS27 collection rests somewhere between ambience and purpose, or ‘AMBIEPOSE’ as this season’s title suggests. A neologism evocative of cricket chants, swaying wheat ears, and pastoral tranquility, the matte and delicately wrinkled garments look as if they were left to dry outdoors in a warm summer breeze.

VOLUME IS THE MOST UNDERRATED TOOL

Need a lucky outfit? Wooyoungmi has ideas

Wooyoungmi's FW27 is built around heung: the Korean idea of joy, spontaneity, and rhythm. They combine pastel blazers with shorts, breezy open blouses, and oversized totes that could hold either a laptop or a towel. But we always return to HR-approved territory: closed-toe shoes, ties, chinos, mini argyle cardigans. It's prep school by way of the coast, where PTO and PTO requests exist in the same outfit.

IBEYI don’t make spells anymore, they make offerings

Four years since Spell 31, IBEYI return with Offering — their first fully independent album. If Spell 31 was an act of transformation, Offering feels like what comes after: an open-armed surrender.

Saint Laurent SS27 caters to a cartoon villain (and it’s hot)

Between golden trenches, see-through derbies, and thin-framed shades, the Saint Laurent man waltzes through the mist. For SS27, the concrete heart of the Bourse welcomed what appeared to be the wardrobe of a cartoon villain. And that’s a heavy weight on the skinny shoulder of the SLP models to carry.

TSHEGUE

French-Congolese Tshegue performs her magnetic track ‘Mupepe’ on Glamcult TV. Taken from her latest project, ‘Psycho,’ the energetic, Detroit-inspired garage rock track blends the fervor of punk with the steady pulse of the club.
