Mixte shares this image about the issue: “Between the revocation of the right to abortion in the United States and the acceleration of climate change, 2022 could seriously discourage us and amplify our feeling of powerlessness. However, true to its predictive abilities, fashion has been driving and motivating us since the year began to remind us of our ability to change things. It is the concept of empowerment that we have chosen to address and develop as a theme throughout this new fall-winter 2022/23 issue. In another way, this theme allows us to deal with self-assertion, independence, accomplishment, free will and creativity; and reminds us, as Montaigne said, that "true freedom is to have power over oneself for everything".
