Kidsuper’s latest show had the fashion world buzzing, and for good reason. The entire performance felt like a scene from Dune—yes, it was that chilling. Colm Dillane, the creative mind behind Kidsuper, channeled a cinematic, otherworldly energy that was deeply reflected in the pieces from his FW25 collection. It wasn’t just a runway show; it was a whole mood.
Colm has always had a very unique and specific vision when it comes to design, and this collection is no exception. As I watched, I couldn’t help but notice how much it felt like an extension of his previous collaboration with Louis Vuitton menswear for FW23. His signature hand-drawn details were front and center, and we’re starting to see him lean more into technical ski outerwear—a trend that’s been picking up speed in recent years. But here’s the thing: Colm was ahead of the game. While everyone is just jumping on this ski-tech vibe now, he’s been exploring it since 2023.
This collection speaks to Colm’s roots in streetwear and art, and honestly, I don’t see why it wouldn’t appeal to a wide audience. In fact, I can’t help but imagine what would’ve happened if Colm had taken the reins at Louis Vuitton menswear after Virgil Abloh’s passing. His approach, much like Virgil’s, blends fashion with culture and storytelling in a way that feels both bold and accessible.
But what I appreciate most about Colm and Kidsuper isn’t just the clothing; it’s the way he incorporates art into his designs. There’s something almost whimsical about how he brings his artistic vision to life through fashion. It’s not just about looking cool; it’s about seeing the world through a different lens. If you take a closer look at this collection, you’ll catch those little artful moments—details that show just how deeply Colm is inspired by creativity.
At the end of the day, Kidsuper isn’t just a brand—it’s a statement. It’s streetwear with a soul, a collection that makes you think as much as it makes you want to wear it.
