Sehnsucht Atelier Fall/Winter '24 Paris Fashionweek







Sehnsucht Atelier showcased their Fall/Winter collection at Paris Fashion Week, featuring drinks, a presentation of the collection, and a live performance by the band Skemer. Skemer is a band with singer Kim Peers, who is also a topmodel and DJ, and guitarist Mathieu Vandekerckhove, known for his work with Amenra and his solo project Syndrome. These two very different worlds came together, resulting in minimalist dark wave compositions that are both raw and sensual.
Sehnsucht Atelier collection; Capitolo VI "Healing wounds", creates a world filled with poetic nostalgia, drawing inspiration from mystical and powerful beings of an ancient past. The brand aims to explore the mysteries deep within us, translating this journey into designs that are both elegant and sensual, yet intense and bold. Made entirely in Italy, 95% of the fabrics used are organic and certified eco-friendly by GOTS. The creative process centers on introducing organic beauty into chaos, forging new codes through the fusion of diverse aesthetics. Punk, Fetish, Victorian, and Romantic influences converge into fluid, sinuous silhouettes, accentuated by black lace and leather. This interplay of contrasts is mirrored in the material choices, blending refined fabrics with raw, untamed details.
Kim Peers owned the black lace maxi dress she wore during her performance with the band, seamlessly blending the music's ambiance with the brand and collection's aesthetic. One standout piece was the lacquer-like leather maxi skirt paired with a simple cropped white blouse, an effortlessly chic look perfect for Christmas or any holiday event. Another favorite was the off-white tailored coat with a fitted waist, featuring classic Victorian-inspired details and bows that beautifully accentuated the hips.
