Richert Beil Spring/Summer 2025: Bademodenschau Makes Waves at Berlin Fashion Week
The runway unfolded in a mesmerizing gallery space at Potsdamer Platz, where models paraded past a meticulously crafted dystopian ‘Fischbrötchen Stand’ by Stefanie Grau, encapsulating the essence of the sea. Richert Beil defies traditional fashion norms by presenting a diverse cast and collection, urging viewers to contemplate societal richness and the importance of inclusivity.
The collection explores two contrasting themes: the simplicity of summer attire and garments that exude security, strength, and defiance against conventional dress codes. This compelling juxtaposition is visible in the dynamic range of designs—from airy silhouettes that evoke freedom to robust, tailored pieces that surround the wearer in comfort and individuality. Reflecting individuals who feel out of place in typical summer wear, Bademodenschau invites dialogue, understanding, and acceptance by challenging cultural clichés and highlighting the unique identities of minority groups.
Signature to the brand, the collection embodies a spirit of experimentation and rebellion with its precise clean lines, sharp tailoring, and monochromatic colour scheme. Jale and Michele utilize materials like latex, rubber, and regenerated leather, harmoniously blending them with premium Italian textiles. Their innovative fabric treatments and avant-garde pattern-making continue to push the boundaries, creating pieces wearable by all genders.
I love this collection and the brand. Richert Beil consistently delivers a revolving narrative that excitingly disrupts the fashion world, and Bademodenschau is no exception. It’s a defiant yet elegant statement, perfectly reflecting the brand’s visionary outlook and commitment to inclusivity.
