excerpt: Ann Demeulemeester. Pre-Fall 2026 - lookbook

 


"...Very much utilizing the tumultuous 1970s as the template, Gallici's proto-doom rock, cultish appeal, of peace and love disillusion, with war, violence, death and hedonism, the counterculture years of the 70s continued to buffer against neoconservatism and the dreaded spectra of dormant fascism.  Fashion, of course also assisted, mixed with psychedelics, car trips into the unknown, and sex magic. Bohemian chic, merged with goth and witchcraft.  And for Gallici's 2nd Pre-Fall collection for Ann Demeulemeester, he has delivered such a conjuring.


And Pre-Fall 2026, is Gallici's darker, and more brooding lookbook collection to date, siding up to the mid 1970s punk, merging the more tailored looks of CBGBs NYC lower east side grit, with the late Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm Mclaren's 1950s 'Situationist' movement prints...."
