DEW Magazine #57 The Collective Issue Fall 2025. In this issue, we celebrate the ties that bind us, across oceans, cultures, and creative disciplines. From fashion houses to grassroots movements, from ateliers to activist circles, the message is the same: we are stronger together.
This season, we turn our gaze toward collective power the strength that emerges when voices, visions, and values come together. Our Fall 2025 issue is inspired by movements that dared to defy barriers most poignantly, the civil society–led maritime initiative that sought to break the blockade of Gaza. It was more than a voyage; it was a symbol of unity, courage, and humanity’s shared longing for freedom. In a world increasingly fragmented, this act reminds us that solidarity still sails strong and that true change begins when we move together.
In fashion, we find echoes of that same collective pulse. The story of Fall 2025 is one of harmony born from contrast the union of power and softness, structure and fluidity, memory and invention. “Wall Street suiting” returns, but this time it dreams tailored lines now draped in tenderness, a quiet rebellion in silk and wool. Romantic silhouettes whisper alongside streetwear’s raw confidence, and in that dialogue, a new language of style emerges one that speaks both strength and sensitivity.
The colors this season are bold enough to feel, yet honest enough to breathe. They are the shades of movement, of protest, of dawn. Fashion, too, becomes an act of activism not only in the choices we make, but in the stories we tell with fabric, texture, and intention. Sustainability, craftsmanship, customization they are no longer trends, but a shared promise to create with care.
As you turn these pages, may you feel the collective heartbeat that threads through every story, every image, every stitch. May it remind you that even in an age of isolation, beauty is most powerful when it is shared.
Here’s to the dreamers, the makers, the ones who sail against the current, together. (Text Teuku Ajie)
