DANGER I TEMPTATION 危险与诱惑
The theme of this collection is "Danger and Temptation". FACEONLAB strives to peer beyond superficial appearances and delve into the subconscious depths of human nature, kicking off the collection’s narrative with the two-headed cobra as its inspirational totem. Within a single body, restrained rationality coexists alongside indulgent desire, much like the inseparable light and shadow dwelling inside every human heart. We incorporate the Black Goat of the Woods from the Cthulhu mythos, a symbol standing for both annihilation and the cradle of primal life force; from a cosmic perspective, good and evil are inherently indivisible.
Drawing on 1970s gang aesthetics for this season’s apparel design, the pieces span opulent vintage styling to cutting-edge modern avant-garde silhouettes. Such stylistic contrasts serve as a visual metaphor for the ongoing struggle within human nature. The brand reframes underground fringe aesthetics and integrates them into mainstream ready-to-wear while striking a seamless balance between the two. Danger and temptation are never a matter of choice, but an inescapable paradox every intricate soul must navigate alongside throughout life. With this collection, we pay homage to all clear-minded individuals who, torn between reason and craving, dare to stare into the abyss and embrace their whole selves.
