Dear Shaded Viewers,
It seems that the more commercialized fashion becomes, the more extreme young designers are in their creative expression. I was hooked when I discovered Alexandra Sebbag’s work during the last edition of MODO Brussels. The St-Luc graduate does not compromise when it comes to aesthetics and proportions. Her collection evoked authority and female power, focusing on black and contrasting textures. It was bold and erotic at the same time.
Alexandra teamed up with Eric Desjeux and Le Bestiaire to showcase her collection in a short film I enjoyed watching.

Best,
