The cult of modern society towards some kind of divine or spiritual belief, which underlies astrology as the new contemporary religion, becomes a way of salvation or refuge; an act of redemption in the midst of a reality that borders on dystopia.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Within all this system of creeds, the Christian religion and all the iconography that surrounds it, has probably been the most exalted on the altar of fashion. Now, this is resurrected on the catwalk in the form of crosses or sacred symbols that recover consecrated brands such as Blumarine<\/strong>, Gucci<\/strong> or Dolce & Gabbana<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The gates of heaven open, and the cross, emblem of Christ and his sacrifice, is now revived by a series of designers who crucify all that representation in their new collections through the gothic current that guides the last seasons. This transcendental symbol, which takes on different forms and iterations depending on the religion, signifies for Christianity the redemption of Christ’s passion, love or blessing, as primordial concepts before entering the collective sacrilege of the cultural sphere.<\/p>\n

The mystery surrounding faith and religion, as well as their devotion, have been concepts explored throughout the history of fashion. Whether from the Catholic vision of John Galliano<\/strong> or Christian Lacroix<\/strong>, or from the stimulation that this whole universe raises, as a source of inspiration for creatives like Alexander McQueen<\/strong>, as we saw in his 1996 show held in a London church in which the models walked through the temple of Christ with black lace veils and masks with crucifix appliqu\u00e9s.<\/p>\n
