When it comes to Dr. Christina Rahm, Los Angeles Fashion Week is not only an event for fashion designers to debut their most recent fashion collections on the runway. As a versatile professional with expertise as a doctor, psychologist, scientist, humanitarian, and entrepreneur, her company Merci Dupre Clotheirs reveals another side to her.
On Oct. 19. at The Waldorf Astoria in Beverly Hills is where the audience of creatives met Merci Dupre Clotheirs’ latest collection named ‘Enviremware’. The ‘Enviremware’ product line features exclusive technology, incorporating patented nano-biotech formulas intricately integrated into the fabric. This innovation creates a highly effective shield designed to guard against EMF radiation, heavy metals, viruses, bacteria, parasites, and fungi. Additionally, it helps prevent exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic particles associated with 5G.
The presentation, jointly organized by Elysian, ROOT, and DRC Ventures, had its origins in a podcast. Dr. Rahm serves as the host of “Under The Red Chandelier,” where she engages in discussions with creative leaders in the realms of fashion, creativity, and the arts. Inspired by these extensive dialogues, her vision expanded into the creation of a fashion brand. This brand goes beyond mere style, aiming to empower women with knowledge about safeguarding their skin against toxins, bacteria, pollution, and UV rays.
As the models strolled down the runway, the audience couldn’t help but turn their heads, capturing the essence of these models and the way designers artfully adorned their clothing. Each ensemble exuded a distinct aesthetic, drawing inspiration from the late 80s with elements such as up-cycled denim pieces, transparent tulle designs, and distressed jeans coupled with jackets and crop tops. Additionally, the collection featured sheer blouses paired with flowing skirts that gracefully trailed the runway, as well as earth-toned dresses that immediately captivated the audience’s gaze. This new collection isn’t confined to a single aesthetic; rather, it offers a plethora of luxurious choices that embody a state of beauty and grace knowing that this brand endorses eco-friendliness.
Merci Dupre is an ardent advocate for the idea that the fashion industry bears a significant responsibility toward our environment. With an unwavering commitment to this cause, they are fervently dedicated to translating this vision into reality through the creation of sustainable clothing solutions. Concurrently, Dr. Rahm, who envisions a harmonious fusion of science and fashion, is embarking on a transformative journey to introduce her groundbreaking Super Skin Coating to the broader world of fashion. This revolutionary endeavor embodies a profound message that extends beyond the realm of attire.
“I want to say this. I am a scientist that has multiple doctorate degrees, I have four children, I’ve traveled to 88 countries and I stand for woman empowerment, but more than that, I stand for all of this,” said Merci Dupre Clothiers founder Dr. Rham.
This mission goes beyond a mere plea for safeguarding our planet from the dangers of environmental toxins; it stands as an imperative to shield our very bodies from these harmful elements. Each and every piece in the collection is painstakingly created through a thoughtful blend of resources including: deadstock, upcycled materials, and sustainable fabrics. In this joint effort, both Merci Dupre and Dr. Rahm aspire to convey a narrative that possesses multiple layers of significance. Their end goal is always sustainability within the fashion industry while also avidly advocating for the well-being of the Earth. You can stay updated with the future of the brand on Instagram here.
Explaining the collections target audience was seemingly one of the easiest tasks of the evening. “I make clothes for all women,” says Claudinette, “for each piece, I’m thinking about different women of all ages everywhere.”
