Berlin Fashion Week: 3 Must-See Fashion Shows
This publication is also available in: Français English (UK) Deutsch Italiano Español
The Berlin Fashion Week may not have the glamour of Milan or Paris, nor the big stars walking on the runways, but it is an essential meeting point for young designers and innovations in fashion. This year, three shows particularly stood out for their creativity and unique vision of contemporary fashion. In this article, I wanted to share some silhouettes from the best shows of this Berlin Fashion Week!
The Paradisco Show by Marcel Ostertag at Berlin Fashion Week
Deep house music playing loud, bold silhouettes confidently striding to the upbeat rhythm of the music, models with dynamic walks. This is the kind of show I love!
The collection is inspired by the Garden of Eden. A disco paradise from the 1970s with pieces that could have belonged to a Balenciaga collection.
Marcel Ostertag is a German designer (like Karl Lagerfeld) who has made a name for himself internationally. He loves to feature models that represent the era, and it’s a true delight to see older or plus-size models on the runway.
There were quite a few cut-outs paired with glamorous pieces, silver elements reminiscent of the futuristic side of the Garden of Eden, and vibrant colors and floral lace patterns reflecting nature.
The Love-Inspired Show by Danny Reinke
The collection is named Stupid Cupid, and it’s safe to say that love suits Danny Reinke well as he presents a stunning and very cohesive collection.
One of the features I enjoy the most when attending a show is understanding the designer’s intent, and here, everything makes sense. The show presents very diverse silhouettes that perfectly express the different stages of love, starting from meeting, heartbreak, and marriage.
We see the corset, a piece that is the epitome of romance and very trendy at recent Fashion Weeks.
The Renaissance-Inspired Show by Trey
It’s always a lovely moment to witness a first show from a young designer.
The label Trey belongs to Cambodian designer Simmy Chhun, who presented for the spring/summer 2025 season pieces of lingerie and lightweight dresses inspired by the Renaissance.
Originally from Phnom Penh, Simmy Chhun grew up in a family of stylists and tailors before flying off to the renowned Central Saint Martins College of Fashion in London and the ESMOD Fashion School in Berlin.
Before launching her brand Trey, Simmy Chhun worked for Tom Ford and Dior.
I’m sharing some photos from the show. Personally, my favorite piece is the golden pants. I’m a fan.
The corset is present on most models, and we also see various colors.
