For Autumn-Winter 2023, David Koma stages a study of the elements and iconography characteristic of twentieth-century glamour shot by Jason Lloyd-Evans during London Fashion Week.
Glamour is a sensory stimulant: an enigmatic feeling founded in timeless atmospheres and images that draw us in with seductive force. In the contemporary arena of fashion and entertainment where self-expression is eradicating the conventions of the old world, classic representations of glamour continue to prevail: the eternal impact of a red lip, a glossy nail, a cut-glass heel, or a satin lapel. Gradually, masculine influences transition into a high-octane glamour native to 1930s’ vaudeville.
Embodied by Marlene Dietrich – whose radical dress sense interwove the feminine and masculine symbols of desire – the collection suspends itself between the grammar of two revolutionizing eras: the icon’s 1930s heyday and the 1960s continuously present in the work of David Koma.
