Photos | Masked models and social distancing kick-off Anja Gockel’s fashion show in Berlin
Berlin-based designer, Anja Gockel, who shows her collection every year at the Berlin Fashion Week, and particularly at the Hotel Adlon Kempinski Berlin, refused to back down in the face of the coronavirus pandemic and went ahead with her own fashion show, when Berlin Fashion Week was moved to Frankfurt. The designer hosts her show every year at the luxury hotel in Berlin, and decided that she did not want to change this tradition just because fashion week had moved. The designer showcased her Asuka collection, which translates to the fragrance of tomorrow, along with five designs by Lana Müller. Anja was inspired by the Japanese martial art of Aikido for the motto of the show, 'Take the blow as a gift', which in an interview the designer said was very different from the Western way of thinking, but made sense in the current times of the coronavirus.
