MONIQUE FEI SHUT DOWN PARIS FASHION WEEK WITH 'MONIQUE FUEL'

Monique Fei's SS25 collection, Monique Fuel, unveiled during Paris Fashion Week, pushes the boundaries of fashion with a bold exploration of identity, materiality, and cultural critique. The show was set against a striking gas station-inspired backdrop and embodied by a cast of familiar faces including Lily McMenamy, François Sagat, and Gena Marvin.

The collection rethinks latex, traditionally linked to fetishwear, by introducing textures through intricate prints like houndstooth, denim, and the playful "bambi" pattern. Monique Fei's innovative manipulation of opacity and sculptural padding challenges conventional silhouettes, celebrating diverse body forms and personal expression.

With its provocative designs and layered commentary about body image, the male gaze, and queer identity, Monique Fuel cements Monique Fei's reputation as a visionary in contemporary fashion.
