The Forms of Alectra
Briefly

The Forms of Alectra
"Alectra Rothschild's creations reveal the fluid architecture of the body, where gesture, gender, and garment collapse into one another. Alectra Rothschild is one of the most distinctive and uncompromising voices in Scandinavian fashion, a trans designer whose work merges avant-garde construction with a politics of embodiment. Her garments move beyond aesthetics; they propose an entirely new language for dressing the trans and queer body, intimate, architectural, and unapologetically free."
"In this series, Alectra's creations are performed by Proxy, a trans performer exploring the space between vulnerability and power, and Maji Claire, a Black queer dancer known for her sculptural movement and emotional precision. Maji has performed for FKA twigs and Christine and the Queens, bringing that same intensity and presence into this collaboration. Shot at The Lab in Copenhagen, the series explores the intersection of fashion, performance, and identity."
"The images are minimal and raw, focusing entirely on body, light, and transformation.
