The Emerging Voices:
FÉE MUSE

Website www.feemuse.co
Fée Muse is showcasing its Renaissance collection, inspired by the feminine divine in art. This season focuses on sculpted corsets that embrace a woman’s natural curves. The collection will be a celebration of the female form as a living masterpiece, creating a graceful silhouette that embraces the timeless nature of art history but feels unapologetically modern.
Defined by maximalism, the collection layers textures against a bold zebra, leopard, and floral prints. The designs are a declaration of the refined, fearless Fée Muse woman.
NOIRA
IG @noira_106
NOIRA presents London Requiem: Beyond Wonderland, a collection weaving a multiverse of narratives centred on three years of life in the city. The trilogy begins with Garrotting, a sartorial satire on London’s nineteenth-century undercurrents of unease, featuring an umbrella dress created in collaboration with the designer’s late friend, Zach. The journey continues through Nirvana Rebirth, a documentation of resilience that symbolises a transformation from consuming red flames to unbreakable blue fire. Finally, Wonderland serves as a fairy-tale tribute, using the absurdity of Alice in Wonderland to mirror the realities of city life. The runway finale unites these chapters in a traversal across life, death, and memory, a spiritual reunion of the designer and their lost muse.
THE KONG IS DEAD
The Kong is Dead sits at the intersection of high-fashion and streetwear, drawing on hip-hop culture while prioritising fabric, proportion, and silhouette.
Their first collection, Minus One, operates outside fashion’s expected timelines. The collection focuses entirely on fabric, shape, and proportion, stripping away ornamentation to amplify form. The Kong is Dead treats the runway as a spectacle. It is an exploration of exaggeration as language, positioning clothing not as background, but as the event itself.
TARA KARI

Tara Kari fuses Finnish couture with intricate textile manipulation and empowering silhouettes to showcase sustainable luxury, involved in the British Fashion Council’s Low Carbon Transition Programme.
Their A/W26 collection is inspired by the concept of being ‘away with the fairies’ and explores the fine line between reality and fantasy. Designed for the curious wanderer, pieces feature unconventional material combinations and fluid silhouettes that embody the spontaneity of escapism, celebrating the ‘unspoken magic’ of drifting into one’s own mind.
UNE ENFANT

BELSIZE25

The brand’s philosophy – adapted from a Chinese proverb – is “The greater retreat lies not in the forest, but in the city.” Their collection, Whisky Kiss in the Old City, is inspired by amber whisky, crystal glasses, and shimmering light. Jazz bar drapes and liquid reflections shape the atmosphere, while sequins, beadwork, and fluid fabrics recreate the refraction of light through glass. The silhouettes are close yet restrained, echoing the slow rhythm of jazz to capture an intimate moment of quiet glamour.

PSY LAU

For their F/W26 collection, PSY LAU took inspiration from the bamboo buildings of Hong Kong. Bamboo scaffolding is a historic, cost-effective construction method deeply embedded in Hong Kong’s landscape, frequently used for high-rise repairs and temporary structures. Although it has slowly been phased out due to safety concerns, it is still used in private projects.
The Jiao Festival in Kam Tin, for example, showcases Hong Kong’s tradition of constructing temporary bamboo theatres, highlighting the ongoing importance of bamboo in cultural practices. Through their collection, PSY LAU is highlighting the importance of embracing cultural heritage.
