Скачать или смотреть WALA x Danny Reinke | Berlin Fashion Week AW26 Official Recap

The collaboration between Berlin-based designer Danny Reinke and Seoul’s WALA DESIGN LAB was a journey defined by synergy, shared values, and a grounded sense of craft. From the quiet focus of the final fittings to the high-energy main stage, the partnership unfolded with a rare, calm sense of alignment.

Backstage, the work spoke for itself. Without tension or many words, both teams worked side-by-side, threading even the final beads together. This focus on meticulous detail allowed each house to do what they do best: designing how people and narratives are visually remembered.

The AW26 Opening Runway This collaboration marked a significant milestone—the first time a Korean design house has joined an overseas fashion week as part of an official opening runway show.

With over 2,000 VIP guests and members of the press in attendance, the reception in Berlin served as a powerful source of motivation. To carry this momentum forward, a formal collaboration agreement has been finalized between both parties, ensuring a continued bridge between the two fashion capitals.

The Vision WALA DESIGN LAB approaches fashion not as standalone garments, but as a Visual Identity system. By considering context, movement, and emotional tone, the lab explores how the design language shaped within K-content and character-driven storytelling can translate meaningfully onto a global runway.
