In a modern political wasteland, thou shall protect thee energy.

BY EDITOR
​The co-founders Benjamin Alexander Huseby and Serhat Isik Berlin based label, GmBH, showcased their first politically motivated collection titled 
– "My Beauty Offends You" – in the midst of a fitting cold-rainy night. To say the collective took us by a storm, wouldn’t do them their earned justice though. The location? It was held in the Parisian L’Aérosol; a street focused art center in what used to be an industrial railway area. 
​
And just like the night of chills among the grundy cold-energy spot, what radiated off the catwalk was an emphasized intention put upon the concept of self-protection. From the first piece that caught my attention, a chain-mail tank top to the extra long motocross gloves – an accessories trend in itself, emerging from within the fall 2018 shows – one could most definitely feel the concept of protecting your energy.

“Last season was quite optimistic and utopian, looking at our fathers. With this one, we felt it was getting more aggressive and dark. The time we’re living in kind of feels a bit like modern Dark Ages, so we’re thinking really about, ‘OK, how do we protect ourselves? How do we create our army?’” Huseby said.

Monochromatic vibes, broad shoulders and non-complex uniform proportions, all weighed in on the thought of surviving a politically rivaled wasteland. But just like with every modern-apocalyptic depiction, the GmBH militia was full of its own rouge-warrior selections. Take the thick heeled boots, PVC shined bottoms with reclaimed leather and bullet proof padded dirt-bike inspired jumpsuit zips. Among a brewing storm, the collection was really all in the head to toe stitching and tailoring; so fitting for the modern rebellion.
