The entry

Mayz is a Los Angeles–Stockholm-based fashion label founded by artist, creative director, and co-designer Mayssa Fakih. With a background in painting, Fakih brings a fine-art mindset to fashion, shaping each collection through visual storytelling and concept-driven design. At Mayz, garments become wearable narrative expressions of individuality and self-discovery. She united with Kevin Mukuri, a visionary designer and creative director whose outlook aligned with hers. Together, they present the AW25 collection” Ode to the Ocean” at Stockholm Fashion Week, merging their distinct voices into a unified, art-driven vision.
The AW25 collection explores the profound energy exchange between humans and the ocean. In this encounter, the illusion of ego, fear, and everyday noise is stripped away. In the vastness of the sea, we are reminded of our smallness, and in that smallness, we find liberation. As the ego dissolves, the mind expands and the heart opens. This transformation becomes a metaphorical rebirth, a return to seeing. The world sharpens into texture, color, and dimension. The blocks that once felt immovable begin to lose their grip, and we begin to walk a path of self discovery fuelled by creativity .
The AW25 Mayz collection draws directly from this metaphysical encounter with oceanic life. Yellows, green hues, fluid silhouettes, and hand-rendered paintings intertwine with fashion, offering a sensory portal between land and sea. It is a collection that celebrates the ocean not just as muse, but as mirror, reflecting the inner journey of becoming.
