Phase 1: Runway. (8:30-9pm)

Phase 2: Human Gallery + Techno installation (9pm-10pm)

After Phase 1, the audience is invited to walk around the human gallery like an art museum, each model will be showcased on platforms like mannequins. The viewers will have more time to view each garment and revel in the stitches and embellishments of the Fall 2026 collection. Seven models, seven outfits. Each garment will be hand-sewn and reworked by Insidious, every outfit will be carefully deconstructed, upcycled, and handcrafted with care.

Insidious creates through upcycling and reworking material from the thrift to bring fabrics back to life instead of letting them die in the bins. DFEMT will be spinning industrial techno and hard groove, creating an atmosphere of midnight and deep, underground beats you can feel in your soul. There will be a cash bar available at the event, serving red and white wines throughout the event.
