GCDS FW24 – A toy shop for adults

Eroticism is often stimulated by the ambiguity of an attitude, by suggestion, by the unspoken, or even by the promise of a future situation, because imagination and desire are also better stimulated in these cases than when everything is already won or given.

Rooted in childhood nostalgia, GCDS FW24 is juvenile, savage, lush and full of temptation.

The collection evokes key moments in youth, whether watching a match in the stands with friends, attending prom in fancy dress, whipped cream prom dress or playing with dolls in an innocent playroom but not so innocent. The first pair of looks were full of rebellious purity but sexy, showcasing all-white, sheer ensembles with vibrant ruffle embellishments. Oversized suits printed with blooming roses sparked celebration, while tulle veils concealed shapeless gowns filled with eerie energy.

Softporn-branded baby T-shirts are paired with sparkling miniskirts, ultra miniskirts and casual tops, while monogrammed wool coats add GCDS’s youthful feel to the collection. Don Mancini’s Chucky comes to life in a haunting top and blood-soaked bottoms, updating Dracula with an open-collar blazer and red tights formal uniform, be careful, don’t get bitten.

GCDS revealed an unexpected Hello Kitty collaboration on the runway, seeing the fictional character formed into metal bra cups and floral accessories.
