KidSuper Fall/Winter 2024 Runway Show String Theory Paris Fashion Week

String theory solves the contradictions between Einstein’s theory of relativity and Quantum theory.

It claims everything is made of tiny vibrating strings that appear as atoms, electrons and quarks. These strings are folded together in multidimensional layers. At first glance they appear as 1 dimension but on looking closer they have more than 9 dimensions.

The KidSuper world works in multiple dimensions. KidSuper believes that everything is connected, theoretically explainable but not obvious at first glance.

The string theory has never been proven but it inspires constant exploration. Just like a KidSuper show, it is not just a fashion show but an opportunity for us to explore and experiment.

About KidSuper

KidSuper was created by Colm Dillane.

Although KidSuper is best known as artist and designer, Colm Dillane’s clothing label, he prefers to brand all of his creative ventures under this moniker. KidSuper is a creative collective that designs and makes clothes; paints and does art shows; records music; and makes films and music videos, all out of KidSuper’s Brooklyn space.

KidSuper is a platform for Colm’s abounding creativity, and its success has made the artist and designer an unexpected reference in American fashion. Dillane firmly believes that enthusiasm is contagious, and that whatever you do, giving it the utmost enthusiasm will capture people’s heart. “When you are little,
you believe you can do anything and that everything is possible – you’re young and you’re free. KidSuper lives by that philosophy.”
