A COLLABORATION WITH VICKI LEE & TED O' DONNELL

A defining element of Aje Summer 27 is its collaboration with acclaimed Australian artist Vicki Lee and composer Ted O'Donnell, extending the world of 'Unfurled' access art, fashion and sound.

Lee's visual language becomes embedded withing the collection, with Australian flora transformed into atmospheric imagery across fabric and surface. The collaboration explores the space between art and fashion, allowing botanical forms to shift between recognisable natural references and something surreal.

BEHIND THE SCENES

At the heart of Summer 27 is a fascination with the Australian landscape in its most elemental form. ‘Unfurled’ explores the raw beauty found in native flora – its irregularity, resilience and sculptural quality.

In the lead-up to the runway, final moments unfold. Amid fittings, sketches, and adjustments, silhouettes take shape. Each detail is refined in anticipation of the premiere, capturing the tension between instinct and artistry at the heart of Aje.
