What Went Down: 032c's Cosmic Workshop Launches At Browns East
Sexy, sweaty and very Berlin - those were the words to describe the energy at the launch of 032c’s women's ready-to-wear line at Browns East.
Fresh off the plane from the German capital, 032c co-founder and designer Maria Koch was joined by fashion director Marc Goehring and a bevy of stylish friends to celebrate the debut of their Cosmic Workshop collection. Both sporting the brand new Buffalo X 032c collaboration boots, Marc showed off the black thigh high style whilst Maria kept it simple in the Jodhpur ankle boots.
As guests began queuing up outside, DJ Suutoo took to the decks to keep everyone entertained. Starting slow, the energy of the music kept in line with that of the crowd, escalating to an energetic crescendo as the night progressed. The genre? Electronic, of course.
With footage of the Cosmic Workshop fashion show playing on a screen behind the bar, partygoers sipped on Moscow Mules and Vodka Sodas whilst perusing pieces from the collection, displayed in an immersive installation zone in the middle of the store. Upstairs became a hangout spot away from the bustle, where models Emily J O’Donnell and Sophia Hadjipanteli could be spotted chatting to PAQ’s Danny Lomas. Downstairs guests were joined on the dancefloor by Miss Jason of Jason’s Closet, overseeing proceedings in typically flamboyant fashion. Bringing their editorial eye to the event, Dazed Digital’s head of fashion Emma Hope Allwood and GQ Fashion Editor Ben Schofield could be seen adding some British style to the Berlin crowd.
Hungry for more, appetites were satiated by a delivery of enormous pizzas from Voodoo Rays, New York-style slices that were enthusiastically gobbled up by nearby guests. In between mouthfuls, both English and German conversation could be heard mingling in the air.
Revved up for the night ahead, as the event drew to a close guests bid one another farewell, or rather ‘Auf Wiedersehen’ - until we meet again. When might that be? Potentially sooner rather than later! Stay tuned to find out…
