Marine Serre’s five-part FW’23 collection is set against a backdrop of three 8-m high towers filled with 1,300 kg of compressed used clothing. Matière Noire and house set designer Remy Brière built the monumental towers using vintage denim, silk scarves, and t-shirts sourced by the brand’s studio. The show took place inside the Grande Halle de La Villette, a space formerly used as a slaughterhouse, turned cultural-centre. Light and smoke transform the space into an apocalyptic scene echoing the world's impending climate disaster, the towers encapsulating notions of circular and recyclable design, their contents destined to being upcycled in future collections.
