“This collection is rooted in reality,” Lisi Herrebrugh and Rushemy Botter wrote online, soon after their AW24 show had concluded. “There is no time for fantasy, what we need right now is to be grounded in the real world.” Most seasons, the Botter co-creatives use their collections to highlight environmental issues, like our plastic-swamped oceans, or hone in on esoteric references, like the unifying power of Haitian vodou. This season, however, shownotes told us it was all about “re-evaluating techniques”, “purifying the silhouette” and “finding poetry in the details.”
