Undercover: The simplicity of everyday life for autumn/winter 24
Discover the Undercover autumn-winter 2024-25 fashion show at Paris Fashion Week on L'OFFICIEL.
In the background, in an almost hypnotic way, the German writer and filmmaker Wim Wenders lends his voice and his writing. As the silhouettes of the Undercover autumn-winter 2024-25 show are revealed, the artist reads his poem Watching a Working Woman and serves as the soundtrack. Throughout the lyrics, we listen to the simple description of a typical day for a young woman — from the moment she wakes up to the moment she goes to bed. Outfits can be messy but still warm — through a delicate play of colours and textures. We find a baguette bag that accompanies her to the bakery, flowers levitating in a plastic bag or a yoga mat carried on the shoulder. The outfits sail between trompe l'oeil effects, materials and surprising proportions - jeans are not afraid to pair with cardigans, sweatshirts, cozy knitted sweaters, structured peacoats, airy veils, business then casual styles, even sparkling fringes golden, bronze and a precious shimmering black. All the elements of this simplex wardrobe, of an independent and dreaming woman, seem to have been laid out, assembled, merged - ranging from the most practical looks of waking up, to the most daring, as if from dreams that we dare to barely imagine.
