“Dream Baby Dream” is a fashion editorial about finding spaces to dream. In an age where algorithms anticipate our desires and social media flatters our attention into doom scrolling, where can we turn to for genuine escape and play?
The editorial centres on Regan, who wears a ribbon top she made by hand acting as a quiet act of resistance through making. In a world of instant gratification and AI, working with your hands becomes a form of grounding a way to root yourself in something real. The surreal imagery that follows (Regan blindfolded with a bird perched on her hand) reminds us that strangeness and beauty are inseparable that dream require we close our eyes to what’s expected.
“Dream Baby Dream” invites you into a world where creation becomes escape, where making something with your own hands opens a portal to imagine differently. It’s a reminded that we still have the power to build our own strange, beautiful worlds.
