Kaia Gerber told Jimmy Fallon that her mom (and fellow supermodel) Cindy Crawford used to prepare her for early runway shows by watching videos of models falling down on the runway.
âThe specificity of what we do is what Iâm really into,â says Michael Kardamakis, founder of Endyma, the fashion archive with the worldâs largest collection of Helmut Lang. The archive focuses on items by various designers throughout the â90s and â00s, but its cornerstone is the cult Austrian designer â and Kardamakis has 1,650 of his pieces, to be exact. âEvery detail counts â heâs so deliberate and nothing is left to chance,â he says.
Having started off as an online reseller, Kardamakis turned his extensive collection into what it is today: a place for safekeeping rare pieces of fashion history and an essential resource for contemporary brands. âIconic designs can be used as a basis for great new products,â says the 28-year-old. âNow, we mainly work as a consultancy, providing raw materials for fashion houses to create new work with.â
