Considering himself an autobiographical designer, Rick Owens holds on to his creative independence to offer naïve commentary on the state of the world. His Autumn/Winter 2024 collection relied heavily on gothic and sombre influences (par for the course for the label), while contradicting goddess-like silhouettes amplified the statement - as evidenced by the Gonna pillar skirt. At first glance, the opulent mermaid's tail and vibrant hue are almost overwhelmingly pretty; then, upon closer inspection, the brand's quintessential irreverence shines through thanks to the crisp cotton material and the natural cracking of the pink dye, serving regal rebellion.
