On the second day of AFW Edition 2022, the famous Moulin Rouge lent its location to a night of fashion. For this special occasion, Dutch designer Duran Lantink brought his own clique of performers to present the Steve Madden Fall/Winter 2022 collection in a way only Duran could have thought of.
As we walk down the stairs, a piercing red laser follows our steps as we get seated around a character crouched on stage with a mask and bra that shoot red light across the space. The show is about to begin when the music builds up and transitions to a hostile sound that ticks away. The first performer ventures themselves around the pole, whilst their 13-inch heels lit up red in sync with their moving limbs. Part of the crew were the legendary Virgen Maria, Christian Jav, Angel-Ho, Xiomara Virdó just to name a few; when Duran curates, he makes sure to get the right people to do the job. Artist Be Be made everyone step aside when they strutted through the narrow hallway in nude lacquer ankle boots. As the night went on, mirror-like open-toe stilettos, rhinestone pumps, and heeled creepers fuse itself with the performers’ presence.
