In 2026, Ms Nina stands at a moment of reinvention—more self-assured, more intentional, and more in control of her narrative than ever before. Known for her unapologetic aesthetic and deep connection to queer culture, the artist has built a career on blending sensuality, humor, and empowerment into a sound that feels both playful and defiant.

Belgian designer Chloë Reners, fresh out of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp and now part of the Dior runway team, tells us how she went from marketing to discovering her true passion for creating fashion. In this interview, we learn more about her education, the freedom and pressure of studying at one of the most demanding schools in Europe, and the process behind her "Dot Dot Dot" collection. She also shares what it meant to be named "Most Promising Graduate of 2025" and how this journey is shaping the designer she is becoming. She recently won the ITS Jury's Special Mention award, a major milestone for emerging designers, which is not reflected in the interview because it was conducted before that happened.
