Helmut Lang Muse Kirsten Owen Talks Walking The Designer’s Paris Shows | Subjective

Helmut Lang challenged conventional beauty standards in the 1990s with his unique casting. A mix of friends, collaborators, and street casting, Lang’s shows valued individuals who were authentic, unconventional, and reflected the urban landscape. At the core of his creative community was Kirsten Owen, who played a pivotal role in embodying Lang's vision. In this insightful interview, Owen reflects on her experiences working with Lang, sharing stories about the casting process and how it fostered a sense of belonging among the models.
