Fashion hood
Mysterious and bold
It is an indispensable fashion element for talents
In the recent Spring/Summer 2023 Haute Couture Week, designer Haider Ackermann was a guest designer of the new Jean Paul Gaultier haute couture collection, which was also a high-profile one of the most watched this season's haute couture week. H.A pays homage to Gaultier in its own design language, and the runway replicates the salon format, with models showcasing as they go, sharp and glamorous designs combined with sophisticated makeup that blow the haute couture wind back to the 90s. The dress on the runway reveals a calm, elegant, sexy and wild temperament. It is worth noting that the hood element also appears in this series as a strong stroke.
Capuche is a monk's turban, a long, pointed turban usually worn by Franciscan, Capucians, Augustinian, Carmelite or Cistercian monks. The name is now the French word "hood", which originated in Middle French and means cloak.
The hoods worn by the monks were originally described as a symbol of punishment or shame. Between 1257 and 1274, Bonavin issued a decree reforming the hood, effectively removing the stigma attached to the hood. Black hoods are usually worn daily, while white hoods are fuller and are usually used only for ceremonies.
In the 70s of the 20th century, hoods were promoted by American fashion designer Halston and entered the fashion trend. Influenced by the sportswear trend of the time, Halston's hooded dresses were both vibrant and stylish, and were widely loved until the 80s.

Actress and singer Grace Jones is known for wearing clothes with hoods, and her unique and indistinguishable temperament has also made fashion with hood elements more popular.
As the muse of Alaïa, Grace Jones interprets a hooded skinny dress inspired by the uniforms of nuns in a convent created in the spring and summer of 1986. This dress is not only a fusion of Eastern and Western clothing elements, but also allows the sacred and sensual to be combined, making women's beauty more powerful.
Not only is the fashion hood closely associated with the disco era, the style also briefly became popular in the late 30s and early 40s of the 20th century, when the design was early on drawn from the regal cloak.
Whether it was the 30s of the 20th century or the 70s of the 20th century, the background color of the fashion industry was flashy and mysterious, which was actually a projection of the catastrophic events in the society at that time. Both phases of the fashion industry tried to divert attention with a pompous and vivid expression to help people forget the damage and troubles caused by the Great Depression and the Vietnam War.

The entire collection is based on black and neutral colors, with vintage tones such as burgundy, saffron yellow, eggplant purple, olive green, etc., which coexist in the same collection, recreating the Yves Saint Laurent fashion imprint and giving it an indelible modern feel.
In addition to Saint Laurent, the combination of simplicity and hood in Alaïa's Spring/Summer 2023 collection reflects multi-dimensional depth, and the exquisite elegance is embedded in the sneaky tailoring.

In Halpern's Spring/Summer 2023 collection, the designer recreates the lavish outfits her mother used to wear at home in New York, and the leopard print hood robe was inspired by a Turkish robe she used to display in the past.
