KidSuper designer Colm Dillane

KidSuper Paris Tornade F/F2025

Le designer de KidSuper, Colm Dilane , a apporté une perspective inventive et ancrée à la Fashion Week Homme de Paris. Son exposition, mise en scène dans une salle du XIXe siècle à La Villette, présentait une sculpture cinétique de l’artiste de Brooklyn Daniel Wurtzel. La tornade tourbillonnante de plumes, de pétales et de papier a ancré la collection « From a Place I Have Never Been ». Inspirée par le voyage de Dillane à Tbilissi, en Géorgie, la collection a exploré des territoires créatifs inexplorés.

KidLa couture super ludique rencontre le streetwear

Dillane a repoussé les limites tout en restant fidèle aux racines artistiques de KidSuper. La gamme comprenait des collaborations avec BAPE et WILDSIDE de Yohji Yamamoto, mêlant streetwear et couture de manière inattendue. Les costumes en patchwork et les motifs audacieux se démarquaient, tandis que les plumeaux aux tons de terre et les vêtements délavés évoquaient une esthétique nostalgique de science-fiction.

Le streetwear graphique signature de Dillane est resté mais a évolué. Un trio de looks minimalistes tout en blanc a marqué un virage vers une simplicité raffinée. La collection a équilibré le concept avec la portabilité, montrant la croissance de KidSuper sans perdre son côté ludique.

Une pièce maîtresse au milieu de la théâtralité

Cette saison a été remplie de spectacle, des thèmes westerns américains aux chapeaux de pilote et de cow-boy vintage. Pourtant, la capacité de Dillane à fusionner créativité et fonction le distingue. KidSuper a prouvé qu’il pouvait évoluer sans perdre son identité, en livrant un spectacle à la fois réfléchi et visuellement frappant.
