The Sky Invites You: F/W2024 Collection
“The Sky” is an ode to the infinite expanse above us—limitless, boundless, and full of potential. Humanity’s long-standing intrigue with the sky fuels the narrative of the F/W2024 line. The collection draws inspiration from daring female aviators who soared into the skies, marking their independence with each flight.
Emphasizing polished silhouettes, strategic layering techniques, and a muted colour spectrum, the collection portrays an androgynous style with a subtle feminine twist. Each piece promises protection from the harsh elements, mirroring the aviator uniform’s blending of functionality with poetic allure.
Amelia Earhart’s words resonate through the collection’s philosophy: Is flying reckless? Perhaps, but dreams know no boundaries.
A Tapestry of Textiles and Tones: The Material Narrative
The collection’s fabric selection is deliberate and discerning, highlighting heritage classics reimagined to shape a contemporary wardrobe. A rich tactile sensation unfolds through the palette of earthy browns, creamy whites, deep burgundy, thunderous tones, smoky greys, and essential blacks. A diverse array of materials, including wool, oily denim, coated cotton, shearling, and supple leather, weaves together to form a tactile narrative.
Continuity and creativity fuse with the pioneering Earhart print, manifested on a technical fabric that mimics the look and feel of an aerial view, depicted in subtle shades. Traditional aviator jackets utilizing fine British textiles, tech wool, and compact wool knits hark back to the era of historical aeroplane blankets, merging the collection’s historical touchpoints with modern influences.
Tailored Perfection and Luxurious Collaborations: Extending the Atelier Collection
The F/W2024 range further elevates the atelier collection, bringing to life an opulent tailoring story. This chilly season, Mark Kenly Domino Tan joins hands with leather experts UTZON to deliver a line of leather and shearling pieces, including knee-high boots, jackets, and aviator hats.
With a preference for essential fabrics like poplin, cashmere, and merino wool, the collection adopts a minimalistic approach. This exercise in reduction facilitates a clean and intelligent collection imbued with understated luxury. F/W2024 stands as a celebration of simplicity in elegance—meticulously crafted garments that promise to elevate a timeless wardrobe and delight the aesthetic senses for years to come.
