So, the mailman just came through with your latest online shopping haul. Make sure everyone — roommates, family members, even neighbors — know how good you look. Whether it be a strut from one side of your room to the other, serving face down a hallway, or body in the backyard, bring the sounds of high-fashion’s most glamorous runways to your own personal fashion show.

Open with SebastiAn’s tastefully pretentious and grandiose overture “Hysterias,” created specially for Yves Saint Laurent’s Summer ‘21 men’s show. Up the ante with bass heavy electronic hits from Charli XCX and Thom Yorke, some endlessly groovy hip-house from Channel Tres, or rippling hip-hop from FKA Twigs and Yung Lean. If your outfits are looking a bit dreamy, glide along to the electronica and soft techno of Bonobo, Park Hye Jin, Sebastien Tellier, or Yaeji. But most importantly: never, ever forget to burn the house down to the hard techno that has made its home in fashion shows everywhere, with Gesaffelstein, Baauer, Daniel Avery and Brodinski. 

Follow the beat, and walk like a badass. The runway beckons.
