London, Milan, Paris – international fashion weeks are ideal for finding out what’s on the minds of celebrities and then gossiping about it: So it happened that last week’s headlines were mainly dominated by what Pamela Anderson wears or doesn’t wear.
The Baywatch star (she is also a PETA activist!) dared to forego make-up completely and thus make a statement for “natural beauty”. For some it’s a “farewell to the sex symbol image”, for others it’s a “great sign”. Whether this complements or excludes each other remains a matter of interpretation.
There was also a lot going on at the edges of the catwalk. Starting with Germany’s still most successful fashion export: Demna Gvasalia, head designer at the luxury company Balenciaga, once lived in Düsseldorf, which is why the Georgia native is often referred to as “one of us”. He doesn’t really attach any importance to it himself.
The selection of his models alone always suggests a bit of nostalgia. For a long time she was considered a Berlin art collector Karen Boros as one of Gvasalia’s muses, but was replaced this season by another Berliner. For the first time, actress and DJ were allowed to Gigi Spelsberg Strolling down the catwalk for Balenciaga. Also Gvasalia’s mother.
Brother found that Guram Gvasalia According to social media statements, it wasn’t funny at all, partly because he wasn’t invited to the spectacle. This may have been due to the fact that the siblings no longer liked each other after Demna left the “Vetements” label they founded together in 2015 for a better job at Balenciaga.
The fashion world is ruled by men
What exactly happened is not known and probably not that important, because things change even faster than fashions. The long-time head designer of the British label Alexander McQueen Sarah Burton presented her very last drafts these days. The 49-year-old resigned after 13 years. It was so emotional that even a model Naomi Campbell had to fight back tears while modeling. Those familiar with fashion history know why: Burton once joined the label as an intern under McQueen himself.
By the way, the new creative boss is the young Irish designer Sean McGirrwho previously at JW Anderson responsible for the ready-to-wear collections. And why should we care? Because with the appointment of McGirr in the Kering conglomerate, which includes Balenciaga, McQueen, Gucci and many other prestigious luxury houses, from now on only men will be at the top. So much for the progressive fashion world.

Fortunately, politicians do not ignore these short-term trends and insist on the motto: toxic masculinity must be abolished. The First Dog of the United States was expelled last week for inappropriate behavior. Because Joe Bidens German Shepherd with the barking name “Commander” kept biting people and was thrown out of the White House.
From fashion to animals – that’s a tough cut. Or not. In Berlin last week, celebrities celebrated German unity at the racecourse. Actors, among others, threw themselves on the VIP club grandstand in Hoppegarten Tom Schillingart collector Julia Stoschek and former CDU minister Peter Altmaier dressed up to, well, bet. On what and for what? Good question. But the latter was, I bet, unvarnished and no one was interested in that.
