'Child's Play' "I wish to hold up a mirror against myself and the past three years of the brand’s couture journey. What is the opposite of all the weight and seriousness we carry? Can that universe expand any further? Perhaps confronting that reflection is what it takes to embark on a new journey, to rebuild the truth and purpose in what we do." - Robert Wun I had the immense honour of returning to collaborate with Robert Wun on his Autumn/Winter 2026 haute couture show, Child's Play, presented at the Dôme de Paris during Paris Haute Couture Week — our sixth show together, and one that took me right back to the beginning.

Ariana Grande’s breathtaking “The Pink Butterflies” couture look for Wicked brings together the creative brilliance of designer Robert Wun and milliner Awon Golding.

'Becoming'
Robert Wun presented his Autumn / Winter 2025 haute couture collection, 'Becoming', at Théâtre du Châtelet, Paris, on 9 July 2025 during Paris Haute Couture Week. A deeply personal collection, it reflected on the emotional and symbolic act of getting dressed — the garments we choose for love, loss, celebration and transformation, told through sculptural silhouettes and poetic precision. It was our fourth show together, and I created fourteen hats and headpieces for the collection.
