Laura Gerte Deconstructs Virtue in Berlin Spring 2027 Collection

other · 2026-07-05

For her spring 2027 collection 'Lost to Virtue,' Laura Gerte drew on Dadaism and Mina Loy's 1914 feminist manifesto, which framed female virtue as patriarchal control. The show opened with deconstructed vintage T-shirts, heat-bonded and cut to expose the body. Gerte used secondhand scarves pleated in an old West Berlin workshop and upcycled brewery T-shirts with Bavaria graphics. The collection includes micro bras, string details, low-rise skirts, and fluffy boleros, designed for weddings, openings, clubs. Gerte described the collection as the final part of a trilogy moving from vulnerability to darkness to liberation.
