Let There Be Darkness
Not unlike skateboards on the streets and rewinding cassettes with pencils, glowing clothes (mainly printed tees) and accessories have been a phenomenon of the 1990s. The faint tint of bright green and yellow can only be spotted in the absence of light, and is examplar of the eccentric and timeless trend revived on this year's runways and capsule collections.
Taking the style further was creative director Anthony Vaccarello for Saint Laurent winter 2019; feathers, stripes and polka-dots were aglow under flashing LED lights, in a fully-dark show. Neon accessories like sunglasses and heels appeared to float on invisible bodies, as the models filed through the futuristic, disco-like setting.
