Berlin (dpa) - At the moment, the wardrobe is a problem.

Even if a lot of clothing is hanging in it - in the middle of the pandemic, practical things are often enough.

Above all the sweatpants.

At the start of the Berlin Fashion Week, designers are now encouraging experimentation, perhaps also for the next video call.

And Leni Klum continues to follow in the footsteps of her mother Heidi.

The 16-year-old recently made her model debut in German “Vogue” - with mother Heidi (47) on the cover and in a fashion spread.

At the beginning of the fashion week, she now appeared in a video.

She shows outfits from different labels and designers.

The fashion film for the so-called Berliner Salon has appeared online.

Because of the pandemic, Fashion Week is taking place this time for viewers on the Internet.

The large catwalk in the power plant was opened by Belgian designer Tom Van der Borght.

The recording was released on Monday evening.

The models wore headdresses made of cable ties, glittering faces, colorful fabrics and platform shoes.

His fashion is part of an artistic research project, the designer told the German Press Agency in advance.

According to his own statements, he relies on a lot of manual work and experiments with materials such as ropes and plastic, with artificial fur made from plants or so-called fish leather, made from the skin of old fish.

What can you wear?

And would you dare to do that too?

You could surprise your relatives with something unusual in the next video call.

Or colleagues in the morning in the online conference.

Van der Borght showed plush bags, printed leggings and overalls with rubber boots.

The fashion week combines several events under one roof.

Because of the pandemic, there is no audience this time.

Instead, a security concept by the organizers in the power plant provides, for example, corona tests for employees.

Kilian Kerner's catwalk shows are planned until Wednesday.

The online summit “202030” wants to talk about environmental protection in the industry by Sunday.

Some pictures from Fashion Week may serve as inspiration for other times.

"There is a life after video conferences in baggy trousers," said Berlin's Senator for Economic Affairs Ramona Pop (Greens) in an interview with the Tagesspiegel.

The way we dress will be an important means of expression in the post-pandemic era.

"Look how quickly fashion has developed after the Spanish flu."
