Pump Up The Volume

Spring 2023 Fashion Trend

Supersize me, not once, but two times, as we saw childlike abandonment at work when it came to playing with proportions. There was a surrealist Alice In Wonderland quality to shapes which seemed to have a mind of their own and were growing up and around the models.  Super-elongated sleeves at Loewe were brought back to reality with the incorporation of a split, but at Act No1, Luca Lin and Galib Gassanoff took the reins off completely and went full throttle with gigantic geometric shapes in tulle. Not necessarily a look for the everyday, but dropped shoulder blazers at Acne Studios, and the voluminous linen pants at Balmain also speak to the same sentiment.
