Speaking with the brand, it was the headlines surrounding Caitlyn Jenner’s transition that inspired Leni to transfer these issues to Berlin’s colourful fashion scene. A budding fashion hero and an activist, Bolt’s mission is clear: we must fight for more visibility of those with gender nonconformity, and work tirelessly to do away with prejudices and restrictions. In terms of the collection, what you’re getting here are witty prints with an important message. Leni wants to attract attention to the gender diversity in our society through his self-expression on social media channels like Instagram and Snapchat. Best of all, the collection is wearable for both men and women.
Leading with the hashtag #nogender, we take great pleasure in introducing this brand to our discerning readers. When fashion and social issues merge, you realise once again how powerful this form of expression truly is.
