Hodakova’s AW25 collection didn’t just hit the high notes – it composed an entirely new symphony of style. The show was a masterclass in surrealism, deconstruction and playful irreverence, turning fashion into wearable performance art. Case in point? The cello dress that closed the show – a full-sized instrument sculpted into an ensemble, proving that fashion doesn’t just come off the rack, but off the music stand too. And let’s not forget the violin headpiece or drum skirt; bold reminders that accessorising can be an orchestral affair.
Volume, shape and restriction took centre stage, from a fur explosion dress that cocooned its wearer in tangled knots to a full-body skirt that transformed movement into sculpture. Gothic romance also made an appearance with sheer lace and nun-inspired drama, blurring the line between holiness and high fashion. With this collection Hodakova didn’t just push boundaries, she strummed them.
