Lepotokio – The Forumist https://theforumist.com Urban Lifestyle Magazine Fri, 14 Nov 2025 13:51:28 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.7.4 https://i0.wp.com/theforumist.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/cropped-theforumist-fav.png?fit=32%2C32&ssl=1 Lepotokio – The Forumist https://theforumist.com 32 32 122757213 Gothic Modernism https://theforumist.com/gothic-modernism/ Fri, 14 Nov 2025 12:23:40 +0000 https://theforumist.com/?p=33778 Pulling from history to define what comes next. The structured yet voluminous line of the gowns recalls Victorian corsetry, the sculptural details hint at ecclesiastical dress, and the blurred metallics channel early 2000s techno futurism, each piece merging tradition with a contemporary edge.

In a moment when trend cycles collapse into one another, fashion uses historical codes not as nostalgia but as raw material. The result is a conversation between eras, where craftsmanship, culture, and modern identity intersect. Here, the future is shaped by revisiting and reworking the past.
