MUGLER

Mugler introduces The Fang handbag Building upon the innovative design language established by Casey Cadwallader since his debut, the House of Mugler reveals The Fang, the latest addition to its growing line of leather goods. The Fang seamlessly suggests versatility thanks to its soft, sculptural signature. The elongated body of the bag, crafted in luxurious leather, is accentuated by bold, geometric lines. The Fang can be worn with the side gussets closed for a sleek, compact silhouette, or opened to reveal a more expansive, angular profile. The angular side panels extend diagonally outward when open, creating a dynamic shape that captures the spirit of the House of Mugler. At the center of The Fang is its custom hardware closure: a striking fang-like element referencing Mugler’s signature heels, which can be accessorized with its own leather cover. In line with Mugler’s commitment to innovation, The Fang also features a blockchain-based digital passport, offering users a fully immersive experience. This technology provides detailed information about the bag's craftsmanship and authenticity via an integrated QR code, ensuring each piece remains connected to its heritage.

Today, Mugler announces its first social program, providing scholarships to promising music and dance students in financial need. Embracing a heritage in the performing arts, Mugler recognizes the growing need to support performing arts education, making it more accessible. Mugler Creators is a visionary initiative selecting 16 promising young talents in financial need in the fields of contemporary music and dance. The program offers scholarship opportunities, ensuring selected students receive resources to fuel their career trajectory to stratospheric heights. Beginning this 2024 academic year, these future stars are nurtured through unparalleled support, provided by the Mugler House in partnership with contemporary music and dance schools, and charities, in the United States and the United Kingdom, with plans to expand globally in future years. In the United Kingdom, the Mugler Creators Program partners with Trinity Laban, renowned for its programs in contemporary music, dance, and singing, and with the national support organization for dance One Dance UK. In the United States, the program partners with Purchase College, SUNY and the Purchase College Foundation, a public liberal arts college with outstanding conservatories, including the acclaimed Conservatory of Dance. The initiative is accompanied by a captivating film short, featuring talented volunteer students from Purchase College and Trinity Laban, directed by British-Tunisian director Félicity Ben Rejeb Price, renowned for her creative and progressive vision on urban culture. The cinematic expression not only celebrates the initiative but celebrates the avant-garde legacy of our would-be future stars, showcasing the transformative power of creativity and empowerment. The House of Mugler extends its deepest gratitude to the two choreographers who lent their artistry to the film's movement design: Cain Coleman, Purchase Dance alum and commissioned guest artist, and Stephanie Schober, Professor at Trinity Laban. Our sincerest thanks also go out to all the student volunteers who graciously dedicated their time and talents to this project.

Mugler Spring Summer 2025 As the House of Mugler celebrates its 50th anniversary, Casey Cadwallader embarks on a tone of celebration and reflection, and a chance for his vision and that of the House codes to entwine afresh. Mugler's archive becomes fertile ground for re-interpretation. The past is not pastiched, but pruned and re-awakened - viewed with instinctive tenderness, freedom and lightness. The flower - a fashion inspiration steeped in history, is reimagined, in the language of contemporary Mugler. The archly feminine is disrupted in Mugler and Cadwallader's shared signature: made sharp, knowing, fierce. The references to flora offer an ode to Paris, and the history of couture fashion - the lines and layers that have defined shows and ateliers for centuries, including at Mugler. And they tell a personal story too - one of Cadwallader's own recent Spring and Summer spent gardening at his country home in Fontainebleau. The meditative aspects of this work, as well as certain aesthetic elements - lithe stems, undulating petals, spiked fingers on gardening gloves - inspired the collection. Flowers are dissected and exploded, nodding to Mugler's heritage of merging the natural world with sci-fi or technological elements. The flower is not worn, but embodied, with the architecture of the body working in tandem with layers of fabric and corsetry. We see both urban and rural gardens: in the speckles that weave across fabrics, recalling a spray of mud-licked water on a fragile petal, or in the engineered warped fishnets, which suggest criss-crossing trestles. A collaboration with Baccarat, French House of fine crystal, brings a moment of rainfall: dazzling grape drops, intricately weaved with transparent threading, shower the body. Refreshed, petals and buds bloom vibrantly across hand-painted velvet jacquards, expertly crafted with rare shuttle looms in Lyon. Raw-edged tulle brings breezy freshness. Refinement is key - pieces have been reworked to their most considered form. Tailoring is clean and each detail speaks of precision, from the curves of necklines - a twisted version of archive designs - to the padded petal shapes enveloping hips. Slices of flower-heads emerge, with drama and intention, from the waists of trousers - blending softness with sharpness. The geometric lines are echoed by wigs, crafted by hair artist Zhou Xue Ming, which frame the face in an alluring intervention, which re-directs focus. This season, a new bag - The Fang - anchors looks. It blends a bat-like shape with an innovative metal fastening. Smaller versions appear on the runway, in tones and fabrics that match garments: suede with studs, cotton, denim, as well as leather. The collection speaks of a moment of re-ignition at the House. It is an ode to inner-force, to depth of beauty, and to Mugler's unbreakable strength of character. - #mugler
