For the third season in a row Owens showed on the beach of the Venice Lido with no audience, something he called a private ceremony. On screen it looked like a troop of glamorous aliens whose ship had crashed in the fog and who decided to throw a rave.
The mood behind it was anger and anxiety about American politics, and his line was simple: in times of strife, you step up. He did it by joining the comfort clothes of the pandemic to the grandeur of couture. Bodysuits, knits and puffers were the base. The puffers became capes like protective shells, and the coats had shoulders so big he said they turned the body into an architectural bulldozer. Shredded denim was twisted and draped into a long, sinuous dress. Sequins arrived as thong straps slung over the shoulders of cashmere bodysuits.
The closing look is the one to remember: a fully sequined ivory hourglass gown with a sculpted, asymmetric neckline and one sleeve, worn with a black gauntlet and mask. It was among the most glamorous dresses of the season.
Cinematic and superheroic, this is Owens turning fear into armour, and looking fabulous while doing it.
