MEMORY AS THE NEW MUSE

Yes I know, it is a very fashionable word, rather ’abused’ lately by fashion professionals. Therefore it is inevitable to use it: how can one not talk about vintage when reviewing the London, Florence, Milan, Paris and New York catwalk shows? The most interesting collections for next Autumn/Winter underlined a retro charm expressed through prints, fabrics, patterns, colours. Designers and creative directors, each in his or her specific own way, rummaged through archives and second hand markets in order to give new life to styles and creations from the past by masterly projecting them in the immediate contemporaneity. With this in mind, it goes without saying that the general mood is prone to a romantic allure, long-forgotten in the name of minimalism and of an alleged conceptual modernity. Of course,…

Nostalgic Armors

Rei Kawakubo faces and pits ancestral civilizations against contemporaneity in a sartorial construction of the suit where, from shoulder to sleeve, different fabrics are joint, contrast, stratify, brocades and silks with many prints that, with their nostalgic patchworks, make us think of samurais’ armours. Military details combined with studs and garlands of flowers are interpreted as a simple ornamental leitmotif. A XXI century warrior wearing an articulated suit with a masculine, urban and oneof-a-kinds DNA. Rei Kawakubo affronta e mette a confronto mondi ancestrali e contemporaneità in una costruzione sartoriale dell’abito dove, dalla spalla alla manica, si uniscono, si contrastano, si stratificano tessuti diversi, broccati e sete dalle svariate stampe, che con il loro nostalgico patchwork, riportano la mente ad armature Samurai. Dettagli militari abbinati a borchie e ghirlande di…

Urban Cowboy

Having definitely abandoned religious iconography, Riccardo Tisci takes a trip to America, taking inspiration from and reworking the image of the Wild West man in a sophisticated, contemporary, even sexy way. Obviously, the result is an Urban Cowboy who dresses referring to the past remaining true to current codes of tailoring, elegance, street attitude. Statement shoulders for jackets. Lapels and collars enriched with statement copper-coloured studs and bright stones. Coats and trench coats, as well as plaid fabrics and pinstripes, reminiscent of Marlboro Man adverts. The season’s motifs are a cobra that aggressively appears on jackets and sweaters and the new allover logo, redesigned by Tisci for the Maison.

Seventies Bohemians

Lanvin man’s silhouette is fluid, made of shirts and outerwear, coats and trenchcoats to be worn unfastened; under jackets and sheepskins low-necked t-shirts show and, between jacket and shirt, fishnet garments appear. The quest for imperfection lets half-view creased garments, frayed knits, leathers and calf hair patchworks. Micro prints and “tye and dye” effect, large and long trousers covering sneakers that, like some jackets, bear a hint of sprayed lively colours, recreating the nonchalant and charismatic, a little bit 60’s image of a romantic, seducing and bohemian man. La silhouette dell’uomo Lanvin è fluida, costituita da camicie e capispalla, cappotti e impermeabili che si indossano sbottonati; sotto giacche e montoni si vedono T-shirt scollate e tra giacca e camicia appaiono capi in rete. La ricerca dell’imperfezione lascia intravedere capi sgualciti,…

Oversized

Modern, young, fashionable: Raf Simons remains true and faithful to his beliefs and to his very own vision of fashion. For next season he created yet another brilliant, poetic, contemporary collection. 1970’s references in the V-neck sweaters with university letters, the American college varsity jackets and the down jackets, all strictly oversize. The wool knitwear, which plays an important role in the collection, is characterised by worn out and threadbare vintage effect finishes. The result is tailoring marked by strong sport cross-pollinations, which is the trademark of the brand. Moderno, giovane, fashion: Raf Simons non si smentisce, fedele al proprio credo e alla propria visione della moda, compone per il prossimo inverno un’altra collezione geniale, poetica e contemporanea allo stesso tempo.

“On the road”, the idea of a trip, existentialism, an adventure inside themselves, is the inspiration of Maria Grazia Chiuri’s and Pierpaolo Piccioli’s who nowadays do not look in a single direction anymore, but rather venture, through multiple iconographies, exploring and suggesting, into a vast aesthetics research. An explosive wardrobe which bases are classic and casual garments. The use of diverse matters, denim, leather, sheepskin, printed fabrics, needled wools, patchwork which have been added studs and emboideries, tracking this new cosmopolitan man’s story. “On the road”, l’idea di un viaggio, l’esistenzialismo, un’avventura all’interno di se stessi, è l’ispirazione per Maria Grazia Chiuri e Pierpaolo Piccioli che oggi non guarda più verso una sola direzione ma che, attraverso molteplici iconografie, si evolve ampliando la ricerca estetica.

PURE ESENCE

Active in the menswear segment since 1922, the German brands collection for the upcoming cold season was inspired by the idea of a “return to essence”. A kind of purism focused on firm product choice with many references to the style in vogue in the 1970’s, a fashion that in those years often drew inspiration from the purity of the Bauhaus movement era when silhouettes and colours were used deliberately to accentuate some aspects rather than others. Roy Robson took inspiration from the architecture, interior design, clean colour schemes of the 1970’s, reliving the natural feeling of that decade. The surfaces of the fabrics and the knitwear are still modelled in specific looks through materials, prints, embroideries, three-dimensional textile patterns. In perfect balance between casual and business, the collection includes…

According to Kim Jones, Louis Vuitton man is an ageless luxorious traveller. The inspiration, for this season, looks at the brand’s genuine story, at least 162 years in archives and a Parisian elegance.

WO, that translated in Flemish means ferocious, has been the raging message denouncing the terrorism acts nowadays in the world. This tribal, contemporary man’s wardrobe flaunting jewels adorning the head, hints an animalier print or makes it a total look; masks or totems’ images are inlayworked on jackets and coats, while it seems to prefer silk and lurex fabrics for the more cerimonial looks.

After a very important moment of stepping back and conceptualize, the brand finds a moment of clarity and another identity. Neil Harbisson is one who hears the vibrations in color well, as a sensor that sees special tonnage of life. Every color has its own vibrations, frequencies and he has the ability to hear and feel color. This idea is one of the guiding lights of inspiration for the new season. CLIMBER B.C calls us to feel our own colors, our own frequency: the vibrations of black, wistful sentiments of purple, the various shades of yellow. And so each item becomes iconic, individual, optimist. “Smart Business”…

Denim De-Construction

When the rules and the classical idea of the making of a garment don’t exist any longer, when a thing’s never really finished and experimentations never cease.

Cross-stitch embroideries on jogging pants, snag shirts, fringed selvedge, garments being cut and reassembled and burnt. Some patches depicting ancient paintings, newspaper or comics pages are randomly placed here and there and, just like souvenirs, create a link to the past.

Padded Tailoring

Yamamoto’s collections, season after season, become more and more personal and his murky sense of humour, this time, has been transliterated as a series of messages scribbled over both sides of T-shirts. A harsh message, reflecting his relationship with his mother and, for sure, with women in general. A chaotic, quilted wardrobe, a soft, multilayered sartorial style, an XXXL capable of a total protection or even, perhaps, of a social isolation. Jersey outerwear, voluminous trousers and scarves, sweatshirts and T-shirts are worn over all and complete the silhouette.
