Excerpt: Craig Green. Spring 2026 - Paris Fashion Week

 

 "...And for the inspiration of the The Beatles for Green's Spring 2026 collection, he commented on how the famed British pop group rise to fame was "otherworldly", and they nearly were, when the late Carl Sagan, wanted to put a Beatles song, "Here Comes The Sun" on the Voyager golden records (EMI declined), which would have certainly made them immortal, well at least the music, as Voyager will travel onward for the next million plus years.

Green's postmodern, psychedelic trip for his latest array works a charm, from 'flower power' 1960s esque flows, through to his seafaring  doomsday cult, who worship the oceans, which may indeed end up engulfing the Earth one day due to climate change.  And in a rather disconcerting, yet captivating way, the models had small LED lights positioned over their eyes, illuminating, maybe symbolically, their life force, which can always be seen within the eyes, glowing bright, as the walk the runway.  Also noted is Green's tribal imprints, seen in some of the pattern work, tassels and stylized shawl jackets.  The various colored handkerchiefs hanging from the model's mouths, are supposed to represent Green's interest in early necromantic practices of channeling a ghost through a living medium, thus the spiritual ectoplasm was emitted from their mouths."
