Just days before August Barron’s SS26 show in Paris, Addison Rae wore a bubblegum pink, 1950s-style apron dress on-stage – custom-made by the label, and later, ripped off her body to expose a set of latex lingerie that had been tucked underneath. Turns out, the pop spectacle was a hint at the Paris-based label’s SS26 collection Real Housewife, which explored old-school, suburban American housewives through the lens of vintage Japanese bondage magazines.
