Fashion is timing. Style is attitude. And somewhere between stardust and constellations, your next treasure will choose you – not the other way around.
With REAWAKE Constellations, we're launching a monthly style column curated by Alexandra Kruse – astrologer, fashion journalist, and professional treasure hunter. Alex doesn't believe in fast fashion, but in iconic pieces with a story, the magic of the right moment, and that exactly what suits you will find you – when you're ready.
She is living proof that dreams can come true, that manifesting, when done correctly, really works. For years, she meticulously visualized her dream bag: a Birkin 35 in Ultraviolet, with palladium hardware and robust Togo leather. And then—as if conjured from stardust—it was suddenly there. With her. From REAWAKE. The real miracle? It's from the year her son was born—a gift from the cosmos itself!

This isn't about swiping away horoscopes, but about archetypes, stylistic energy, and cultural codes. It's about fashion as an expression of personality, zeitgeist, and cosmic timing. And it's about circular fashion as a conscious decision against the next trend and for what lasts.
Every month, Alex translates a zodiac sign into a universal style language: with icons, aesthetic rules, cosmic notes, and a curated REAWAKE selection. No consumer pressure, no hype. Just style knowledge, attitude, and a touch of unicorn glitter.
Get ready: The cosmos is calling, the stars are twinkling, and your next treasure awaits somewhere between stardust and winter wonderland. Magic is real...
Capricorn is the archetype of concentrated elegance:
Clean lines, cool color palettes, textures that exude permanence. Its energy is not loud, but precise; a style that seeks conviction rather than distraction.
In fashion, Capricorn manifests as a sense of calm: silhouettes that don't strive to please, but rather to function. This month encourages showing less and making more decisions – quality over chaos, clean lines over noise.
And this is precisely where the dialogue with circular fashion begins: clothing is not consumed, but chosen. Not new at any price, but right, high-quality and durable.
Marlene Dietrich is the epitome of a Capricorn: a face like a sculpture, a style like architecture.
Their uniforms, tuxedos and impeccably constructed silhouettes made androgyny socially acceptable and transformed precision into pure seduction - she wore trousers when women were beaten up in the streets for doing so!
She cultivated her image with meticulous discipline – controlling every detail, curating every picture. She understood early on that elegance is an attitude and that a single line has a stronger impact than any ornament.
Her collaboration with Paramount costume designer Travis Banton shapes our modern idea of "Quiet Glamour": clean lines, luxurious fabrics, a controlled coolness that creates presence.
To this day, Dietrich shows us how Capricorn fashion works: structured, uncompromisingly beautiful – style as seriousness, aesthetics as backbone.
Color scheme: Graphite, stone grey, deep black – a palette of calm authority that replaces drama with clarity.
Silhouette: Sculptural blazers, clean lines, defined shoulders. Form as an expression of attitude.
Material: Cashmere, wool, polished leather. Quality becomes a texture that inspires confidence.
Materials that are allowed to age and thereby develop their character.
Styling: Monochrome, precise, understated, understated – never decorative, always decisive and consistent.
Signature Look: A strikingly cut blazer + slim trousers + structured bag – a look that embodies stability, focus and timeless confidence.
A style that is predestined for high-end secondhand: iconic pieces that carry history and have a future.
This selection follows not a season, but a philosophy. High-end secondhand as a conscious choice: iconic pieces whose value doesn't fade – but grows.
What begins now has a future.
January 2026 feels like the first, perfectly placed stroke on a couture pattern. The sun in Capricorn plays the role of Creative Director:
She makes radical decisions about what stays and what goes – a clear vision, a clear line, zero compromises. Mars, also in Capricorn, is the quiet executive producer who makes everything possible: no drama, just action. Every step a statement, every move a goal.
Saturn in the last degrees of Pisces takes on the role of the master tailor – the seamstress who controls every detail, checks every seam, and removes every illusion. He allows only what fits perfectly to pass through. Venus in Capricorn is the editor-in-chief: she curates with a calibrated eye. Quality, texture, origin – nothing escapes her notice.
This transit reveals the true value of circular fashion: We don't buy new – we invest wisely. We don't collect clothes, we build a legacy.
We're not collecting clothes, we're building a legacy (i.e., what we no longer need, we sell!).
The full moon in Cancer on January 3, 2026, brings back the opposite world: The moon is the head of emotional styling – it shows us which colors offer comfort, which silhouettes feel like embraces, which textures carry memories. This is the moment when you decide what you truly love, not what Instagram loves.
Around the new moon in Capricorn on January 17, 2026, the sun and moon work together like designers and pattern makers, creating a completely new blueprint for one's life. It's no longer about more – it's about doing it right. Capsule wardrobes instead of trends, silhouettes that create a feeling, a lifestyle. Secondhand becomes a strategy: buy less, choose better, wear longer.
A month that doesn't need likes because it has substance. A month for lasting style and decisions that resonate. We love it!
We start the year with an honest self-audit in the wardrobe – radical, loving, without drama.
We take each item in our hands and ask: Does it still serve us? Does it support us? Or are we just carrying on an old version of ourselves?
We reduce in order to refine. In other words: We discard three pieces, keep one masterpiece, and invest – consciously, not impulsively – in a signature piece that can speak for our future.
What's gone gets a second life. What remains becomes a treasure.
Order is not a punishment! A ritual that creates space: for clarity, for poise, for the next perfect cut.

She writes horoscopes and essays for international magazines such as Vogue , Condé Nast Traveller , Annabelle , and InStyle .
Alex finds nothing more boring than simply buying new clothes in a store. As a self-confessed treasure hunter, she loves vintage, high-end secondhand, and iconic pieces with a story. She believes in the magic of timing—that pieces, people, and decisions find us when we're ready. For her, style is destiny with attitude. And a little bit of unicorn glitter.
