By FashioningLife

Anrealage ss24

Back with his photochromic garment technology, Anrealage takes us back to the future of fashion with a multitude of colour-changing designs.


Held at the Palais de Tokyo, the Anrealage show was held in a dimly lit room, in which a small stage was overlooked by curious lighting projectors. The first model entered, dressed with a bodysuit covered with the AZ monogram logo, layered with a transparent PVC knee-length bell skirt and a bra-like top. The look was finished with an oversized Claudine collar. As she stopped In the middle of the stage, the lights turned off and were replaced with ultraviolet glares. And, there, the magic happened: the designs transitioned from seemingly plain clothing to dynamically coloured, futuristic looks.


After debuting during the Anrealage AW23 collection, the photochromic technic using PVC and ultraviolet light was then trademarked by the house. The Tokyo-based designer, Kunihiko Morinaga gave it a fun and playful comeback which felt new and innovative despite a second use.


Anrealage SS24

Heavily inspired by the '60s space age, the collections had an overall unique and futuristic approach to fashion that brilliantly blended technology with philosophical questioning around the concept of ‘Existence’ and ‘Non-existence’. By exploring the fading and shifting essence of colours, Anrealage delivered a highly poetic show that proved that garments are about more than trends.


The clothes themselves were all made out of an environmentally-friendly photochromic PVC and finished with colourful detailing in crochet, denim and cotton. The accessories looked like inflatable balloons, while the sunglasses were reminiscent of the 60s.


Kuniniko Morinaga’s SS24 collection, philosophy, innovation, and aesthetic brilliance, transported onlookers to where colours tell the stories of life and transparency becomes the light of being.
