Binary mode - Kitschy couture at Berlin Fashion Week

The Kitschy Couture Model label plays with the fluid boundaries of supposedly masculine and feminine fashion. During the Berlin Fashion Week, the designer and founder of the label, Abarna Kugathasan, presented her latest creations. At Stadtbad Neukölln, models showcased the glamorous designs around the swimming pool adorned with numerous inflatable swimming animals.

Gender-specific embellishments aside

Many designs are inspired by lingerie. Much lace, transparent fabrics, straps, and applications on bare skin make gender-specific embellishments of the designs insignificant. Tops run in wing-like sleeves, delicate necklines unfurl into ruffled sleeves.

The style of the German-based label blends traditional and contemporary influences. The Tamil designer creates a universe where mythical creatures seem to move around.

The Kitschy Couture Model label's success in Berlin, Germany, during Fashion Week, showcased their unique blend of fashion, with the Fashion Week being a platform to showcase Abarna Kugathasan's innovative designs. The fashion label's latest creations, which often incorporate lace, transparent fabrics, and straps, were showcased at a fair in Stadtbad Neukölln, situated in Berlin. Despite the gender-specific connotations, these fashion elements are skillfully used, making them essential but not defining aspects of the label's designs.
