Bags were a highlight of Hodakova’s SS26 collection, not worn on the arm as you might expect, but worn as dresses, skirts and tops (less useful for carrying your belongings). Belts were piled on top of each other, one mini dress was made entirely from chunky socks sewn together, and one book was worn as a collar as if it had been smashed over the model’s head. As usual, the collection became more abstract as it went on, ending in several sculptural straw art pieces.
