Martin Quad Brought Woodman Pt. 2 To Berlin, And The Mirror Got The Message

Woodman Pt. 2 turns the runway into a mirror

Dig out Martin Quad’s Woodman Pt. 2, the Spring/Summer 2027 runway moment brought to Berlin Fashion Week as part of Intervention by Reference Studios.

The presentation works as a retooled chapter from the collection first staged in Milan on June 19, only this time the mood moves tighter, stranger, and more direct. It is giving mirrored bodies, displaced silhouettes, art-school tension, and a little theatrical haunt. We do adore when the runway starts behaving like a secret room.

Inspired by the visual world of Francesca Woodman, the collection leans into doubling, reflection, and the body as both subject and blur. The clothes do not just pass by. They flicker, distort, and leave thee residue.

The Berlin interpretation also came with an operatic edge, with the show’s sound and setting sharpening the collection’s visual push-pull. The result feels less like a straightforward runway rerun and more like a second telling with better lighting and sharper teeth.

And yes, the silhouettes know exactly what they are doing: elongated, intimate, occasionally severe, and built around the kind of quiet drama that keeps you staring after the look has already moved on.

A Berlin runway moment with theatrical bite

What makes this one connect is the balance between polish and unease. The looks feel controlled, but never sleepy. There is fashion-week refinement here, absolutely, but also the sense that something is being reflected back just slightly wrong. Deliciously wrong, even.
