AUTUMN WINTER 2018 RUNWAYS
“Function and presence are mandatory, keeping truthfulness to the fore. The silhouette is assertive and straightforward: generous volumes are interspersed with shrunken lines to get the message across by way of bold frictions. Parkas, blousons, jackets and fisherman jumpers undergo a process of morphing and collage, gaining a composite identity: a practical pocket; knitted borders; different jacquards stitched together. Puffer jackets and nylon pieces have a fast, tech allure. There is a certain pictorial action going on, with brightly colored details highlighting the masculine fierceness of the whole. The active body is the true protagonist: barely palpable under fluid macs or glorified by punto milano suiting. The formal is offset with the sporty, as suits alternate with cycling nods. Corduroy shirts and wet-look neoprene sweatshirts add an element of urban modernism that carries on in the sturdy boots and sneakers anchoring the silhouette to the ground.“
