COLOUR MATTERS

Leather is a resistant material worn by bikers and a good pick if you want a long-lasting clothing piece or accessory. Faux leather does a great job in replacing the original textile and has been the choice of many brands that want to be environmental-friendly. This season, choices are coming in an array of eye-catching colours.

The world of fashion is embracing more collaborations than ever before, and artists of various backgrounds have been in the spotlight. Brands are also praising women for their undeniable power; it is time to #supportyoursisters!

The Italian luxury brand, Max Mara is completing 70 years of fashion, and has selected seven artists to be printed on seven special-edition T-shirts to celebrate. As one of the precursors of today’s prêt-à-porter, the brand tells a bit of its history with these T-shirts. One portrays the photographic shots by William Wegman of the elegant Weimaraner dogs wearing the Max Mara 101801 camel coat. There are also nautical themed graphics by Brian Grimwood that were in the Max Mara SS 2016 runway show and the graphic prints seen on the AW 2021 catwalk in Milan, inspired by Erberto Carboni’s work. These images swirl in a continuous dance between the past, present and future. The T-shirts are made in pure cotton jersey and feature appliqué panels specifically crafted to enhance each artwork.
