Ahluwalia’s “Birds of a Feather” feels like a warm group hug on the dancefloor: Priya Ahluwalia turns her lens from romantic love to platonic kinship, drawing on quilting circles, fan cultures and films like All We Imagine as Light to celebrate the quiet strength of chosen families. Motifs of weaving and feathers run through the collection – braided denim, friendship bracelet prints, embroidered wings, interlacing trims – tying together draped minis, slip dresses, sculpted tailoring and embellished eveningwear in burnt orange, chocolate and forest green.
Tailoring anchors both menswear and womenswear: wool suiting with devoré layers, laser‑cut denim, relaxed utility shapes, all balanced by textured knits and upcycled outerwear. Over 80% responsibly sourced fabrics, including recycled poly and organic cotton, keep the sustainability core intact, while a PUMA x Ahluwalia VS‑1 trainer preview nods to grassroots football bonds. Photographed by Zach Apo‑Tsang in a heightened, intimate reality, the lookbook captures that feeling of moving together – resilient, joyful, never alone.
