HOARDERS OF VISUAL STIMULI

A freshly-baked SWARM Mag editorial to officially launch our third quarterly topic and to usher you into the age of RE:PURPOSE. Enjoy the accompanying text below by our Head Stylist Kateřina Hynková.

The editorial is inspired by the constant human need to look for something new, exciting, and stimulating. We are overwhelmed by information, false information, photos, and stories on Instagram, news on Facebook, Twitter and other platforms available to us 24/7, year-round.

On one hand, it makes our life way easier, however, on the other, our brains can only take so much without taking a break. The same way we greedily collect unnecessary amounts of clothing, products or trinkets, we carry this visual trash on our backs. Is it sustainable? How much ballast and for how much longer we will be able to carry?

“It is a story about a long night, about everything that disappears during the day and only comes out after dusk.” Polish fashion designer Pat Guzik breathes new life into her garments by collaborating with visual artists, such as Aleksandra Waliszewska and Zbiok Czajkowski, whose dreamy and tongue-in-cheek works adorn the skirts, sweatshirts, jackets, and other ready-to-wear pieces by the designer.
Between November 14 and 16, 2025, the international and multidisciplinary FASHIONCLASH Festival once again descended upon Maastricht, the Netherlands. SWARM MAG’s co-founder, Kateřina, was kindly invited to be a member of the jury awarding the best fashion film at the festival’s 17th edition. We also dispatched the other co-founder, Markéta, on a little delegation to accompany her and glean the strongest currents and tendencies in contemporary young fashion design and performance art. Together, they now present their highlights from the three-day event.
Georgian designer Lado Bokuchava, the founder of the eponymous fashion label, describes his upcoming Spring/Summer 2026 collection as “exploring the contrast between sophistication and unease”, among other things. In the interview with Lado, we went over finding femininity in unusual things, the timeless appeal of horror cinema, and the vision he wants to bring to our shared fashion ecosystem.
Fashion designer Alicia Gu weaves mythology from grief and renewal, creating garments that pulse with vulnerability and ceremonial power.
