From nipple bows to crochet pasties, the humble bra got a makeover at the SS23 collections.
Ludovic de Saint Sernin presented fresh takes on his signature chainmail bras for spring/summer 2023.Giuliano Calza, the creative director of GCDS, emblazoned crochet SpongeBob SquarePants pasties across the chest of his opening look. As for Emma Chopova and Laura Lowena? Their first-ever runway show featured a harness bra, which was decorated with bows and floral metal hardware, and a heavy-duty chainlink style worn beneath a silky blazer with one of their signature charm necklaces.
Practicality clearly wasn’t the priority at the shows. The nipple bows seen on the catwalk at Acne Studios wouldn’t last an evening, but at least they looked sweet. Bras were integral to Ester Manas’s spring/summer 2023 showcase, which catered to a range of body types.There was also no denying that some collections overlooked women with bigger busts, given that many iterations were shown on sample-size models. Enter: Ester Manas. The forward-thinking designer showed in Paris this season and found a balance of sexy and sensible.
Wherever you stand on the bra debate – to bra, or not to bra – this season’s iterations were far from conventional. The main message? Bras out, for all to see! Time to spice up your intimates drawer.
