- Iris van Herpen unveils an alluring collection inspired by Aquatic Architecture and Bionic
Innovations that offers a glimpse into the future.
Paris Haute Couture ~ Drawing inspiration from the future of floating cities and the concept of bionic design, this pioneering collection reflects a vision where humans inhabit both land and offshore environments. To envision a future where our built environment becomes a natural extension of the vast aquatic landscapes, creating a harmonious coexistence between humanity and the world's oceans.
Van Herpen's creative journey began with the visionary ideas of Jacques Rougerie, a French
Architect and Oceanographer, known as the ‘Architect of the Sea’. Rougerie's work bridges the
gap between scientific exploration and architectural innovation, offering a deeper understanding
of the intricate relationship between the oceans and our built environment. His designs of
underwater habitats and floating laboratories, informed by his expertise as a marine biologist
and architect, have inspired van Herpen's exploration of aquatic urbanism.
Other looks of the collection are influenced by the revolutionary World’s First Floating City,
‘Oceanix’ that is currently being built in South Korea. As the first large manifestation of this new
form of waterborne urbanism, designed by starchitect Bjarke Ingels, Oceanix integrates zero
waste and circular systems, closed-loop water systems, net-zero energy, and coastal habitat
regeneration. This new generation of architects show a radical shift in urban planning and a blueprint for resilient cities of the future.
Driven by R&D, the collection materializes the principles of parametric architecture that is known
for its fluidity, fragmentation, and shifting patterns. The designs dynamic energy is evident in the explosive patterns of light and shadow that vibrate around the body, the fractal forms, geodesic voids, and distorted perspectives that redefine fashion's traditional boundaries.
Van Herpen draws from the aquatic urbanism movement by focusing on the physiological,
behavioral, and structural adaptations of biological organisms to create new Couture techniques
that blur the boundaries between fashion and floating architecture. Each look was therefor digitally modeled before the physical draping process started.
The cutting-edge ’Biophilic’ technique is developed from lasercutting architectural lineworks that
are bonded together to serve as molds, in which a marble-textured silicone is injected with syringes into the fine lasercut outlines. At the same time abalone-shell flakes are inlaid by hand
into gradients before the silicone is settling. After settling, a final transparent layer of silicone is
injected to enhance the iridescent shell shards gracefully.
The daring ‘Oceanix’ technique is developed to paint bursting patterns in space. These graphic
polygon patterns explode skillfully from order to chaos through the movement of the body, as
the polygons are deconstructed in air by the models moving. Fine fiberglass rods are carefully
balanced to distribute an exact amount of weight and vibration into the dissected geodesic
bursts, creating an interplay of fluidity and fragmentation.
The harmonious color palette of this season combines graphic contrasts of white and blacks
that are highlighted with metallic silver, bronze and gold detailing. An oceanic mood is created
through soft tones of mint-green that are mixed with abalone-blue, turquoise and pearlescent
shell shades.
The ARCHITECTONICS collection dares to imagine humanity’s next frontier: a world with
waterborne urbanism that harmonizes with marine ecosystems.
Global concerns grow as 90 percent of large cities worldwide are vulnerable to rising sea levels,
and over 410 million people are predicted to be at risk.
This season Van Herpen's designs draw attention to the visionary ideas of Oceanix, the world’s
first floating city and the important new generation of architects that show us the ingenuity and
desirability of waterborne architecture. Challenging our conventional notion of living spaces,
each design encapsulates the duality of our existence, where land and water intertwine to see a
future where we seamlessly inhabit both realms.

I'm a biologist and I don't follow fashion, but van Herpen's work thrills me. So many fascinating references to the natural world. Snowflakes, crowned cranes. Beautiful.
It's a hot mess trying too hard. Boring!
@@SweetHeart-vc6zy @SweetHeart: Boring? Did you actually say, "boring"?? Well, I think there's an herbal remedy for your condition.
Same. And now Midjourney just copies her work
How does this lady not have millions of followers? Anyone into nature, form flow art colour ambience, could easily fall in love with this lady’s creations. Just divine.
Not since McQueen has there been a designer that itches the exact spot Iris does. Stunning. The nods to nature, the bold shapes, the intricate cuts, the theatrical nature of it all. Unreal perfection.
I was about to say, too, it has been a while since anyone in Fashion created breathtaking fantasy work that transports you to another world the way McQueen does. ❤

I felt like this showpiece was made just as much for us as it was for the people attending. Models acting to the camara, beautiful music and perfect editing all make up for a fantastic online experience. Thank you to Iris and her amazing team.
Iris van Herpen's latest fashion collection is stunning. I love her work. The headpiece at 1:17 is like if the borg was a collection of artists collaborating to make fashion together. I love the diversity of the models too. It makes each piece even more vibrant. Just my favorite designer. These are lovely and inspiring. I'd love to figure out how to make some of these headpieces and also the bouncy wire pieces. It's all just so cool.
Wow 😍
resistence is futile
Aquatic elegance meets architectural genius. This collection is groundbreaking!
Her designs are so ethereal and beautiful. She will always be my favorite designer, even if I can never afford to own a single piece by her. I feel lucky to be in the same era as this artist.
So suppositious!
@LVXMagick: Pick the dress you want, decide what you might want different, then get some cheap fabric, like unbleached muslin, and try putting your vision together, piece by piece. Use long, loose stitches so you can pull them out to make changes. You might want to find a dress pattern that fits you as similar as possible to your vision. Use it for size reference. Pretty soon, trial & error, you will have your own dress! YOU 6:18 CAN DO IT!
Marina Herlop is honestly the absolutely perfect music for this, what a masterful piece of work this whole endeavor is.
I love how Iris is just as beautiful, graceful, statuesque, and stunning as the models in her show. That walk off at the end and that smile…..just an amazing person. We love you Iris 🥰
This feeds my soul. The pleating at 1:38!!!
I love her because she only seems to keep getting better and better.
Loved every single look is a masterpiece. The music is superb, it fits the show perfectly.. True art in times of madness and uncertainty. Love her :)
WOW - stunning collection...Amazing Soundtrack too: Marina Herlop in mix with Bulgarian Foklore Singing.. Congenial choice.. I´m simply in awe. Thank you Iris van Herpen and your extended team for this audiovisual gem.
Amazed AGAIN! I just love how it all comes together. The models feel more like actresses. Like they GET IT. The vision.
Stunning. Perfection. Art.
Hey queen! Girl you have done it again. Constantly raising the bar for us all and doing it flawlessly. i’d say i’m surprised but i know who you are. i’ve seen it up close and personal. girl you make me so proud.
Her Idea is out of this world.her creativity is amazing❤❤
i love how women's haute couture has embraced volume and sculptural qualities over the last few years.
Her designs look otherworldly yet they also have a contemporary take on nature that exists in ours. The models did exceptional in displaying the movement and flow of her designs!
Iris's designs have that wow factor. Such a talent! Breathtaking designs! 👏
Wow, j'adooore! Enfin du style, de l'élégance, de la légèreté et surtout de la mise en valeur du corps féminin, ça change totalement des horreurs que l'on peut voir un peu trop souvent, et les bottes noires 😍
Bravo vraiment pour les stylistes, chaussures et robes 👏
I love the walks for this show! The models are just owning how phenomenal these pieces are. Unapologetic genius, and I am loving for it!!!
The piece at 2:00 seems so simple on first glance, but the way the fabric seems lighter than air, and how it glimmers... Amazing
I know everyone works hard on their collection, but somehow yours energetically connects with me , the shapes and fluid movements, the bounce, the balance, I can feel it. Art is wonderful.
😂
It's so refreshing to see Haute couture truly modern and innovative. A breath of fresh air amongst all the "red carpet" gowns of other designers..
The simple act of wearing a body covering and all that implies has been re-imagined with such spectacular vision as to be nothing short as pure visual art. Congratulations Iris on this collection. I'm breathless with admiration over this video presentation. 🎉🎉❤
Votre travail est passionnant Me Van Herpen ... je suis absolument et pour toujours fan de votre art ... et que se soit les robes ou leur muse en scene , c'est a chaque fois un voyage qui fait honore a la Déesse-mère
Iris never misses. Thank you for your artwork. Stunning as always.
Beyond high couture fashion.
Designs are pure futuristic genius and the soundtrack selection is magical and sublime.
Speechless, she always sets herself apart.
The way that everything is so natural, it is incredible. The flawless blend of fabric and flesh, the engineering in every aspect of the design. Each piece is truly compelling.
The attention to detail with the designs, the artwork ornaments, filming and music is amazing! And the shoes OMG love them.
Just AWESOME, love her work...💚
Dit is weer ONGELOFELIJK mooi… zo BIJZONDER 😍
Genius! Aqua world, porcupine, alien, golden star... Art in Motion! So Fluid, so Alive! Wow!
Love this collection so much, especially the last dress must be so amazingly breathtaking in real live. Love also, that the models aren't just some hangers for the clothing but are able to breath live into the clothing.
After watching lot of messy fashion shows this year, she just came and save the day as always. Never disappoint. Bravo
The big brands have run out of things to say and young designers to steal from.....there's a lot of stories to be told but they're too self serving and naive...and here comes Iris....giving us LIFE...breathing energy...we are thankful. The world is a better place cos of Van Herpen.❤
@@teddyramagole1904It’s interesting because there are motifs and concepts clearly recognizable from past shows but they are elevated every time and expanded on. I can’t ever knock her for revisiting older ideas because the ideas are so good. It doesn’t feel lazy and recycled, it feels considered. When she reintroduces them it’s to continue the conversation, not repeat it.
the clothes the setting everything screams goddess
Music was on point….
The collection is as always technique et beyond couture.
It’s like the princesses of the galaxies all in one place 😍
OMFG BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO IRIS ‼‼ One stunning peace after another ❣❣
The dress and accessories shoes and everything was museum quality ❣❣❣❣
It's giving from the year 3000... I'd love to see Iris Van Herpen design costumes for a sci fi movie. Like Dune.
I don't know how any movie director hasn't done ANYTHING.....I mean I see any Queen from any realm wearing these beautiful creations...
Just the other day I was thinking exactly the same thing about Dune.
@@teddyramagole1904 not the current UK queen, please

Never to disappoint. Van Herpen is masterful in her craft and a true artisan. Thank you for shining a light on fashion as art. A visual spectacle consumed by me the viewer with the utmost delight.❤

Art+Science+Nature+haute couture= Iris van Herpen. 🫀🌱
Ackkk.. I love Iris' mind and passion!! Her designs are so amazing with every single collection. She is a homerun 💜💜
Love the black outfit With Pockets 😍!!!
Exquisite! Every look in this collection is so elvin! I love the combination of natural influences with high-tech artifice.
I watched it with admiration.❤️
This exceeds fashion, and is now just a pure form of artwork.
some of these i know i have already worn though my vision or eyesight never was good enough
I disagree. Fashion is pure artwork.
All of her work is living, breathing art in motion, with absolute fluidity. Amazing
She should costume design for a movie or TV show where there's an alien delegation come to earth, her designs are always so otherworldly

The only one when it comes to fashion. Mind bending creativity. LOVE this person's unreal attachment to fantacy - my favorite designer.
I feel like I'd been transported to a different world. Fascinating... stunning designs as usual, and the music brought everything together for me.✨
It's fantastic as usual.. arguably her most wearable collection to date!
Breathtaking absolutely fantastic
Amazing looks! And thanks for a little bit of expression on the models (more body expression than facial). It is more entertaining and enjoyable a show like this than the usual models walking like they were late to works without any facial expression. Congrats!
