FAITH CONNEXION is a prolific collective in constant evolution. Artists and designers from various backgrounds have worked together from the start, building towards a common dream: a liberated, creative wardrobe, at the crossroads of multiple inspirations, where fashion, luxury and street-style come together into one voice.

On the wave of an unprecedented shift in mindsets and attitudes, FAITH CONNEXION's singular philosophy mixes, matches and blurs the feminine/masculine boundary to resonate with a vibrant, multifaceted new generation.

It all comes together in a liberated collection which bends the rules and plays the trends with energy and irony.

FAITH CONNEXION has gone back to its roots, drawing on the fundamentals of its DNA while interpreting it in a fresh new way. This collection, laced with Victorian inspiration and neo-punk references, marks a revival.

The House classics are reborn, refreshed and reworked with a mix of materials and juxtapositions deeply rooted in the brand's history.

"Like a virgin" - a punk romantic vibe diffuses and unites the collection. Silhouettes are structured and waistlines sharply defined. Strong-shouldered floor-length chiffon dresses share the spotlight with sequined bustiers and denim skirts sport overflowing masses of tulle. Laced hoodies, one of the House's iconic styles, make an unexpected leap into the evening wardrobe, transforming for winter into a dress with exuberant volumes. A galaxy of studs sparkles on a stretch velvet mini dress, while a bodysuit and a leopard lurex jacquard top round out the look.

FALL/WINTER 2020 COLLABORATIONS:

Italian designer LANEUS has loaded elaborate, jewel-like ornamentation onto soft mohair sweaters.

Visual artist DIONYSIOS returns with a capsule of monochromatic pieces adorned with hand painted Oscar Wilde quotes.

Romantic artist HUIT incorporates his signature stylized skulls, along with patches, stones and letter work splashed across luxe leather and denim pieces, invoking the Catholic martyrs of the Italian catacombs.

DUST OF GODS one of a kind, sustainable garments testify to the House's commitment to eco-responsibility, made by upcycling the FAITH CONNEXION archive styles, giving these pieces a second life through a unique mix of prints, materials and references.

Finally, Italian brand Buscemi playfully interprets the iconic FAITH CONNEXION tweed to take their signature sneakers to the next level.
