After a year holding the position of creative director of fashion house Calvin Klein, designer Raf Simons introduced a different and more adventurous collection.
The collection is inspired by science fiction stories with horror elements set in the 60s, the years of the industrial revolution that shaped modern life with electronics and technology.
