Feeling feline? After a Men’s Fashion Week full of a wholesome dose of cats and their cameos, so are we.
Some of your favorite designers actually put the cat in catwalk this season. Jonathan Anderson hit a home run together with his eponymous label, JW Anderson, at Milan Men’s Fashion Week. Blurring the strains between genders by sending down a mode of naked tights you’re most likely used to seeing on Kendall Jenner, Anderson infused the on a regular basis with the sensual beneath a menswear lens.
Because it’s Anderson we’re speaking about right here, the wacky and kooky was to be anticipated, and the wacky and kooky was delivered. Cats have been seen laid out on crew neck jumpers, however not any old common cat, a blown model of a cat’s face for additional shock worth, seen obvious on the FROW’s attendees’ open jaws.
Givenchy additionally took a crack on the cat theme this season over in Paris. This Fall/Winter 2024 season marks the primary time Givenchy confirmed a group designed by the in-house group, after the departure of former Creative Director Matthew M. Williams. The providing took us again to the roots of Monsieur Hubert de Givenchy and explored fashionable expressions of the gentleman.
Couldn’t see the cats on the runway? Look nearer. Givenchy’s plastering of the pet was a tough one to catch, however that’s what we’re right here for. On look 17, cats have been subtly hidden, peeking from beneath a layer of cream-coloured fake fur, made up of brown eyes and gray whiskers. If you missed that one, the next look comprised a tight-fitting gray tank prime, the place a number of yellow-brown-eyed cats have been plastered on to.
While it’s all very paying homage to that cat who crashed the runway in 2018, basically giving us a lesson in cat walk realness through the Esmod International Fashion Show held in Istanbul, evidently 2024 is the yr of the cat, and never simply on the runway.
Just final week, singer-songwriter Lana Del Rey featured in SKIMS’ Valentine’s Day marketing campaign shot by the icon of images, Nadia Lee Cohen.

Maybe, our prime heads of the style business have all been spending a bit an excessive amount of time on the RSPCA web site, within the seek for a home-body companion, as a result of identical. Or it could be that the business nonetheless hasn’t recovered from Jared Leto’s real looking albeit terrifying take of Karl Lagerfeld’s cat, Choupette, finally yr’s Met Gala. Or, how might we overlook Doja Cat’s show-stealing SFX make-up to actually embody Choupette and meowing for the whole thing of her red-carpet interview with Emma Chamberlain?
Even style will get hit with the winter blues, which is the right time to undertake a cat actually. More so than only a fluffy buddy, style has been taking an actual liking to (fake) fur just lately, with a myriad of collections this season that includes the fabric. Even TikTok’s recent aesthetic obsession, the Mob Wife aesthetic, is centred round a fantastic (fake, we hope) fur coat.
All in all, it’s winter and the one factor most of us might consider is to remain at home in any respect prices – the accompaniment of a cat is simply the cherry on prime of a comfy day in. Fashion portraying cats is simply one more proof that the artwork type does discover our deepest, furriest wishes. And truthfully, purrr.
