THE RHYTHMIC CLATTER OF WHEELS on tracks, the fleeting glances exchanged between strangers, the quiet solitude of a journey: Haderlump's Autumn/Winter 2025/26 collection, Solivagant, channels the spirit of mid-20th-century rail travel. Designed by Johann Ehrhardt, the collection explores the intersection of movement and human connection, portraying 28 distinct travelers whose stories unfold through the runway show in Berlin.
Tailored outerwear dominates the lineup, with coats and blazers reimagined through the label’s evocative aesthetic. Accessories, including bags and suitcases, play a pivotal role in reinforcing the collection’s theme of transience. X-shaped silhouettes, a recurring motif, symbolize convergence: echoing the way railway lines and human paths intersect. Textile manipulation adds depth to the pieces, with wool and denim treated to reflect the wear and oxidation found in vintage train interiors. The color palette, dominated by black, gray, and blue with red accents, evokes the shifting tones of railway landscapes.
Sustainability remains central to Haderlump's philosophy. The collection is produced in the brand’s Berlin atelier using deadstock fabrics and recycled materials. Transparency in sourcing and production is a key to the label's philosophy.
With this new collection, Haderlump continues its exploration of fashion as a study of history, movement, and identity. By drawing from the past while embracing modern craftsmanship, the brand creates designs that are both functional pieces and narratives of transition and connection. ~ Antonio Visconti
