What happens after death? “My runway debut seeks to answer this with a collection that celebrates being reborn in which you only bring what has served you in your previous life and adds what has been missing. This is a narrative of transformation that many trans people experience once the active transition has been started”, Alectra said.

As life starts with water, Alectra explored styles related to this element, such as raincoats and swim-wear. The collection materials feature diamanté elements, rain-inspired fringes, glossy latex and PVC.

The designs of Alectra Rothschild FW24 embrace a Greecian beachy aesthetic, characterized by draped looks reminiscent of the captivating allure of water.

ART DIRECTION of Alectra Rothschild FW24 / Fall Winter 2024

Inspired by a pink weed farm, Art Director Kristian Kirk, inter.agcy, teamed up with light designer Philip Sacht, creating a hot pink light installation that sets the stage for a minimalist yet performative atmosphere that embodies the essence of “too much, it’s too little”.

The show’s production explores themes of wetness, promising an immersive runway experience: “I will leave my entire pussy on the runway”.

The dynamic interplay of spotlights traces the models’ walk down the catwalk, enhancing the element of self-expression. This creates a moment for individuals to shine against the pink color scheme.
