Insta Brands to Know: Contemporary Club Kids

It’s no secret that motorsports are currently having a huge moment in fashion, but Spanish label Dominnico is bringing the racetrack onto the dance floor in a provocative and sartorially disruptive way. Traditional leather-laden biker get-ups are slashed into hardware-heavy miniskirts and barely there crop tops, while fluid, silky jerseys and figure-hugging spandex – worked in a palette of bold, synthetic brights – round out this rave-ready wardrobe.

Bringing a jubilant, nymph-like femininity to clubwear, Antwerp’s Florentina Leitner uses naïve florals, saccharine styling and a Y2K edge for her distinctive woodland rave aesthetic. Despite largely skintight silhouettes and skin-baring hemlines, the pieces never seem risqué or overly sexy, instead being party-appropriate in a more celebratory and gleeful way thanks to expert layering and attention-grabbing print and pattern choices. The designs also have a vaguely sci-fi feel, as shimmering sequins and sleek metals add extra intrigue.

If there’s one youth-focused occasionwear brand to know this summer, it’s Fancì Club. The Vietnamese label has already dressed a flurry of notable it girls, including Doja Cat, Bella Hadid and Addison Rae, and enjoyed viral TikTok fame thanks to its lust-worthy ruffled dresses and slinky silhouettes. The brand manages to balance hyper-sexy partywear – think waist-cinching corsets, ultra-tiny miniskirts and navel-grazing necklines – with a cute, girly sheen by way of naïve bows, pastels, satins and ruffles, making it a perfect option for daytime-to-dance-floor lifestyles.

London-based, Madrid-born designer and Central Saint Martins graduate Celia Calderón Asensio is a garment dyeing master. Each of her one-of-a-kind knit pieces are hand-dyed, resulting in new and unique patterns every time. Her form-fitting tights and bodysuits are not only dance floor essentials, but they’re tie-dyed in psychedelic colours that mimic naturally occurring blooms and formations and are sure to look equally great at home as under a strobe light. Having already worked with Kim Kardashian’s Skims on a limited-edition capsule, Asensio is definitely one to watch.

With a playfully nostalgic look that puts a retrospectively grown-up spin on mall culture and the fashion that arose from it (think a hyper-sexy and vaguely punk-influenced Lizzie McGuire), Maroske Peech brings a kitschy, exuberantly experimental perspective to the function. The Melbourne-based brand - whose quirky but super-versatile pieces are favourites of Euphoria costume designer Heidi Bivens as well as American popstar Caroline Polachek - reimagines classic 90s and 00s silhouettes for the outlandish and expressive landscape of a new generation. Its signature dresses and tops with built-in bags also make for a pragmatic party piece.
