PECLERS PARIS – Women's Fashion Trends Spring.Summer 26
Karin Schmitz (Peclers Paris)
DIE VIELSEITIGKEIT DER MATERIALIEN STEHT IM VORDERGRUND
Wir sehnen uns nach Leichtigkeit, Einfachheit trotz ökologischer und wirtschaftlicher Herausforderungen; ein Verlangen nach Weiblichkeit, urbaner Technizität, glamouröser Funktionalität und Lässigkeit. Wir konzentrieren uns auf Farben und Materialien, die das Leben einfacher machen, aber dennoch durchdacht und raffiniert sind.
Die Materialien stehen im Vordergrund: Optik, Textur, Herstellung und eine vielschichtige Umsetzung: Sie bieten uns Sinneserlebnisse, als Gegenpol zu einer omnipräsenten Virtualität.

DAVID SHAH: QUANTUM FASHION – A Philosophy of Design
David Shah (View-Publications)
Duality, multiple states and the uncertainty principle
No, this is not a science lesson. But quantum mechanics does bear some startling resemblances to unexplanable phenomena in fashion and design at the moment – duality, uncertainty, multiple states, entanglement and collapses.
David Shah navigates his way through a world hi-spending VICs and disinterested consumers, broken and booming economies, Brat Girls and Tradwives, sport and fashion, status symbols asheets and bed rotting, starwars and ecotherapy, crochet and AI, sex and abstinance… Quantum physics allows for particles to be in two states at the same time. Can we do the same or do we have to choose? If so, what’s the best wave to follow?
