Enrica Casentini Enrica Casentini created this season’s cover illustration for SHOP Holland. Her colourful and expressive aesthetic makes her the perfect choice for this cover, inspired by our feature on page 42 about Amsterdam’s less well-known areas and sights. It shows a tulip – Holland’s national fower – with parts of the city peeping out between its petals. Read more about our cover illustrations at globalblue.com/covers.

City While Amsterdam is well explored, there are myriad up-and-coming, less well-trodden pockets to discover for the more adventurous visitor. A case in point is De Pijp (‘the Pipe’), one of Amsterdam’s

even cameras compete for attention at stalls run by good-humoured Surinamese, Antillean, Turkish and Moroccan vendors. Holland’s most multicultural spot is a great place to sample stroopwafels (caramel-flled wafes) and preserved raw herring, as well as countless ethnic dishes and goodies. It’s not all about Albert Cuypmarkt though; the neighbourhood is packed with multicultural shops, cafés, restaurants and bars, which is why it’s often known as the Quartier Latin of Amsterdam. The best chicken satay in town can be found at the lively Pilsvogel, while Couscous Club is dedicated – as the name suggests – to the north

African speciality, and Moksi does the best curries, as well as superb satay and roti. Another Amsterdam development has been the gradual, and haphazard, gentrifcation of the classic red-light districts, with ultra-trendy barbers, art spaces and retro-styled upmarket cofee bars popping up among the lessreputable outlets. In the heart of De Wallen, recent openings include Previous: dutch canal houses
The Rijksmuseum reopened in 2013 after a 10-year hiatus for renovation, and is a must-see, but there are many smaller and less obvious cultural institutions to explore. Among them is the Tassenmuseum Hendrikje, the museum of bags and purses, housed in an elegant townhouse and run by antique dealer and bag afcionado Hendrikje Ivo. Highlights of the collection, which includes pieces dating back to the 16th century, include everything from delicate French silk bridal purses to sparkling evening bags. A short walk away, Museum van Loon is a handsome private home built in 1671, and flled with antiques
a ‘barcade’ (a post-industrial bar teamed with a vintage amusement arcade) and a hip café, Quartier Putain, both in buildings with a far from salubrious past, and the self-styled ‘modern aristocratic’ Sir Albert hotel in De Pijp has some interesting neighbours. To sample Amsterdam’s upmarket boutiques, the nicest area to head for – and pleasantly compact – is de Negen Straatjes (‘the Nine Little Streets’), a treasure trove of 17th- to 19th-century buildings in the Unesco-protected western canal district. Here you’ll fnd more than 200 speciality shops: shoemakers, ceramicists, boutiques selling locally made fashion (such as Hester van Eeghen, with her eye-catching accessories, and Noa Lifestyle), concept stores, homeware specialists, cookbook sellers, delicatessens and much more.

When it comes to tailoring, one innovative Amsterdam brand is taking the world by storm. Ruairidh Pritchard discovers why
The Italians are generally regarded as leading the way in sharp suiting, with Britain’s suave signature style a close second, but the tide is turning in tailoring, with Holland’s very own Suitsupply spearheading the made-to-measure revival.
50 | F E AT U R E S
A good suit never goes out of style, and whether it’s a classic double-breasted blazer, a sophisticated dinner jacket or a more contemporary two-button sports coat, tailoring truly is the most important part of a man’s wardrobe. Once the signature of the super-wealthy, a made-to-measure suit is the secret of looking well dressed. While seasonal of-the-peg suits can, at best, last a few years, encompassing passing trends as they come and – inevitably – go, a suit that is expertly made for your measurements is a real investment in style. While the fashion houses and bespoke tailors lining London’s Savile Row and Milan’s Via Above: Suitsupply founder Fokke de Jong
Montenapoleone have catered to the most discerning clients, ofering bespoke and made-to-measure services to generations of the bestdressed men, there’s something of a made-to-measure revolution occurring. The driving force is Suitsupply, founded in 2000 by 27-year-old Amsterdam native Fokke de Jong, who had already hosted numerous ‘tailoring parties’ during his time at university. Now CEO, de Jong plays an integral part in the Suitsupply machine, and is leading the way in expanding the brand across Europe and the USA – living out his personal mantra of ‘creating the best ft without ftting in’.
Beauty and more … visit Europe’ No. 1 perfumery!º WE WILL BE PLEASED TO WELCOME YOU TO THE DOUGLAS WORLD OF BEAUTY: Discover a perfumery tradition that dates back more than 100 years, and enjoy Europe’s largest assortment of leading beauty brands – from exclusive fragrances and luxury skin care to trendy color cosmetic products and fashion accessories.

For addresses see: www.douglas.nl
What Suitsupply is doing is just that – a made-to-measure service, but on a large scale, bringing bespoke to the masses. Using a combination of the fnest fabrics, European styling and expert in-store tailoring services, the company is opening the doors to custom-made outftting for an increasing number of young men across the globe who are seeking to add their own style to traditional tailoring. ‘Tailoring always feels very established. We have a more unsystematic approach to it,’ explains de Jong. This is illustrated not only Above: Suitsupply autumn/winter 2014/15
by Suitsupply’s collections, but its unconventional choice of locations. ‘We are hardly ever in among all the other fashion brands,’ says de Jong. ‘We convert interesting big spaces such as an old church, a penthouse ofce or a big Soho loft into a comfortable and relaxed environment. ‘We are there for people who want to create their own space – not just to ft in, but to fnd their own ft,’ says de Jong. ‘We want to relate to our customers in a natural way and combine product knowledge with personality to create topnotch service.’ The company prides itself on combining sartorial fair and creativity with craftsmanship and the latest technology to deliver outstanding results, quickly and efectively. It ofers a huge array of in-store ‘while you wait’ tailoring alterations, while a fully bespoke suit can be with the customer in as little as fve weeks from the frst consultation with a Suitsupply specialist. For the upcoming autumn/winter 2014/15 collection, Suitsupply’s head designer Murray Coetzee and his team looked to the past for inspiration, combing the archives of some of Italy’s fnest fabric producers. ‘Everything we do is through the lens of classic Italian tailoring,’ says Coetzee, ‘but our time in the archives has led to a collection that is truly next level.’ Patterns range from subtle checks to bold windowpanes and classic houndstooth, emblazoned across suits, coats, shirts, ties and socks; an incredibly elegant

double-breasted overcoat is one of the collection’s many standouts. Texture is also important for autumn/winter 2014/15, with fabrics from luxurious cashmere blends to hardy tweeds. Meanwhile, variations on traditional blues anchor the collection, ranging from bold Neapolitan to deep navy, with accents that run the gamut from rich shades of burnt orange to ochre, oxblood and forest green. ‘With their innovative use of heritage fabrics, Coetzee and his team have set a new bar with this collection,’ says de Jong. ‘It’s about seeing the past through a modern lens, which is our signature approach to fashion.’ ‘We designed these clothes for the contemporary guy who’s serious about style, but likes to have fun with it, too,’ explains Coetzee. ‘With so many classically inspired, complementary fabrics to choose
‘We want to relate to our customers in a natural way’ – Suitsupply CEO Fokke de Jong
from, we’ve given him everything he needs to make his own unique statement this season.’ What’s clear from Suitsupply’s success is that made-to-measure has evolved from a signature of the traditional gentlemen’s wardrobe into a staple for the modern man who can not only beneft from a perfectly cut suit, but also have his choice of fabrics and fnishing – ensuring his suit fts his style as well as his measurements suitsupply.com

Table Talk Holland’s fnest restaurants ofer intriguing décor, the most exquisite local ingredients and an innovative approach to culinary techniques. Verity Hogan peruses the menu at a selection of the very best
Holland’s restaurant scene is one of Europe’s most diverse; diners are as likely to fnd a traditional meal with meat, potatoes and vegetables as they are an authentic Indian, Chinese, Italian or Turkish dish. Even so, the country has its own rich culinary heritage; the Dutch once dominated the world’s spice trade and the region’s historic banquets were lavish multi-course events. Today, a simpler approach is favoured, with the Netherlands’ famed cheeses, pancakes and sweets taking centre stage. globalblue.com
The country now plays host to around 100 Michelin-starred eateries, with fne-dining establishments located throughout Amsterdam, Rotterdam and The Hague, as well as the country’s gourmet capital, Maastricht. These restaurants typically combine local and exotic ingredients with classical French culinary techniques to produce standout menus. However, traditional Dutch dishes still have a place in the culinary landscape, such as herring with onion or pickle and French fries covered with mayonnaise.

Городские секреты Помимо популярных достопримечательностей Амстердам может предложить гостям еще немало интересного. Лидия Белл в поисках затерянных мест Хотя Амстердам кажется вдоль и поперек изученным и исследованным, он продолжает таить в себе мириады укромных уголков, сокрытых от глаз обывателя. Одним из таких мест является амстердамский район De Pijp («Труба»), в центре которого расположился один из крупнейших в Европе рынков – Albert Cuypmarkt, названный так в честь художника XIX века. Торговые лавки ломятся от всевозможных фруктов, овощей, одежды, обуви и даже бытовой техники, а покупателей приветствуют улыбчивые продавцы самых разных национальностей, от выходцев из Суринама и Антильских островов до турок и марокканцев. Это самое подходящее место для того чтобы попробовать вафли с карамелью «stroopwafels», голландскую селедку, а также множество этнических блюд и лакомств. globalblue.com
Однако рынок не единственное достоинство района. Буквально на каждом углу здесь можно встретить необычный магазинчик, ресторан или кафе, из-за чего район часто называют «Латинским кварталом» Амстердама. Вероятно, лучшее сатэ в городе можно найти в оживленном ресторане Pilsvogel, Couscous Club знаменит североафриканской кухней, а в Moksi готовят превосходное карри, сатэ и роти. Одной из последних реформ в Амстердаме стало постепенное облагораживание знаменитых кварталов красных фонарей. Череда непристойных заведений разбавилась современными парикмахерскими салонами, художественными галереями и стильными кафе-барами. Среди последних открытий – постиндустриальный бар «barcade», расположенный внутри винтажного шоппингмолла и хипстерское кафе «Quartier Putain» в районе De Wallen, а также роскошный и оригинальный отель Sir Albert в районе De Pijp. В поисках престижных бутиков стоит отправиться в район de Negen Straatjes («Девять Улочек»), занесенный в список охраняемых объектов ЮНЕСКО благодаря хорошо сохранившимся зданиям XVIIIXX веков. Здесь расположилось
94
более 200 различных магазинов, включая обувные мастерские, студии керамики, бутики местных дизайнеров (таких как Noa Lifestyle и Hester van Eeghen с ее очаровательными аксессуарами), концептуальные магазины, салоны предметов интерьера, книжные магазины, деликатесные лавки и многое другое. В 2013 году государственный музей Rijksmuseum вновь открыл двери для посетителей спустя почти десять лет непрерывных реставрационных работ. Помимо музея, который непременно стоит посетить каждому, в Амстердаме есть еще немало мест культурного досуга. Среди них – Музей сумок (Tassenmuseum Hendrikje), расположенный в элегантном особняке антиквара и коллекционера сумок Хендрикье Иво. Коллекция экспонатов, часть которых относится еще к XVI веку, включает все: от шелковых свадебных клатчей до сверкающих вечерних сумок. В нескольких шагах в здании 1671 года расположен музей «Museum van Loon», наполненный выдающимися работами старых мастеров. Здесь можно окунуться в быт аристократической семьи и познакомиться с типичным декором богатых домов Амстердама. От истории к современности: музей кинематографии «Eye flm», разместившийся в футуристическом здании в форме космического корабля, стал отличительной чертой globalblue.com
городского ландшафта. Основная тематика местных выставок, как и полагается, посвящена киноискусству. Дополняет атмосферу оригинальный ресторан с потрясающими видами из окон и кинотеатр, где регулярно проводятся показы лучших работ независимого кинематографа. Кроме того, здесь имеются небольшие кабинки, в которых можно в спокойной обстановке посмотреть фильм на ваш выбор. Чтобы добраться до музея нужно воспользоваться одним из самых приятных и к тому же бесплатных видов местного транспорта – паромом, отходящим от станции Centraal. Если вы путешествуете с детьми, то вам наверняка будет интересно посетить музей науки «Nemo», вместивший в себя несколько этажей с химическими лабораториями, интерактивными панелями и огромными мыльными пузырями. И, наконец, ботанический сад De Hortus, считающийся одним из старейших в мире, и местная оранжерея с живыми бабочками непременно доставят вам море удовольствия. albertcuypmarkt.nl, pilsvogel.nl, couscousclub.nl, moksi.nl, quartierputain.nl, siralberthotel.com, de9straatjes.nl, tassenmuseum.nl, museumvanloon.nl, eyeflm.nl, электронной nemo.nl, ehortus.nl

48: In Focus: Suitsupply
В фокусе: suitsupply Когда дело касается пошива костюмов сложно найти равных инновационному амстердамскому бренду. Руайрид Притчард выясняет что к чему Итальянские портные всегда считались признанными мастерами в области пошива деловых костюмов, оставляя позади поклонников изысканного стиля – англичан. Однако всему когда-либо суждено измениться. Вот и сейчас попутный ветер наполнил паруса голландского флагмана мужской моды – Suitsupply, возродившего традиции классического костюма. Хороший костюм никогда не выходит из моды, будь то классический двубортный пиджак, изысканный смокинг или современный блейзер на двух пуговицах – костюм был и всегда будет неотъемлемой частью мужского гардероба. Костюм, сделанный на заказ и бывший когда-то признаком состоятельности, теперь составляет главный секрет элегантного стиля. Сезонные костюмы, купленные уже готовыми в магазине, смогут прослужить в лучшем случае несколько лет, после чего уйдут в прошлое, как и многие модные тенденции. Что же касается костюмов, сделанных на заказ по вашим меркам, то они станут настоящей инвестицией в
непреходящую моду. Пока дома моды и дизайнерские ателье, располагающиеся на лондонской Сэвил-Роу и маланской Виа Монтенаполеоне были заняты обслуживанием самых взыскательных клиентов, в мире мужских костюмов произошла своего рода революция. Ее организатором стала марка Suitsupply, основанная в 2000 году 27-летним жителем Амстердама – Фокке де Йонг, который, стоит заметить, еще в годы своего обучения в университете проявлял себя весьма незаурядно. Будучи ныне генеральным директором, де Йонг является ключевой фигурой Suitsupply и прилагает все усилия для продвижения марки в Европе и США. Его личное кредо – «Идеальный крой без примерок и подгонок!». C одной стороны Suitsupply предоставляет услуги индивидуального пошива одежды, но в то же время делает этот сервис доступным для многих. Сочетание первоклассных тканей, европейского стиля, и возможности профессиональной подгонки костюма прямо в магазине открывает двери растущему числу молодых людей по всему миру, желающих добавить к одежде нотку индивидуальности. «Портняжное дело всегда считалось чем-то традиционным и устоявшимся. Однако у нас есть свой уникальный
96
подход», – объясняет де Йонг. Эту уникальность можно легко заметить не только по самим коллекциям, но и по необычности расположения магазинов бренда. «Нас едва можно отнести к числу модных брендов, – говорит де Йонг. – Мы стараемся найти большие и интересные помещения, такие как старая церковь, пентхаус или квартира в стиле лофт и превращаем их в комфортное пространство с непринужденной атмосферой». «Мы работаем для людей, которые хотят построить свой собственный образ и найти одежду идеального кроя. – поясняет де Йонг, – Мы хотим установить тесные отношения с нашими покупателями, сочетая индивидуальный подход и превосходное знание продукта, чтобы создать первоклассный сервис». Компания гордится тем, что смогла объединить портняжное мастерство и креативность с самыми современными технологиями, что помогло быстро добиться эффективных результатов. Бренд предлагает целый комплекс сервисов для подгонки одежды прямо в магазине, а готовый костюм, сделанный на заказ, будет готов уже через пять недель после консультации со специалистом Suitsupply. Готовясь к предстоящей весенне-зимней коллекции 2014/15, главный дизайнер Suitsupply Мюррей Кутзе globalblue.com
и его подопечные решили пересмотреть архивы лучших итальянских производителей ткани. «Все что мы делаем проходит через призму классической традиции итальянского костюма, – говорит Кутзе, – однако идеи, возникшие у нас при пересмотре архивов, привели к созданию коллекции совершенно нового уровня». Узоры, украшающие серию костюмов, блейзеров, галстуков и носков, варьируются от мелкой и крупной клетки до классических «гусиных лапок». Элегантный двубортный блейзер – один из самых ярких образцов коллекции. Текстура также стала немаловажным фактором в сезоне осень-зима 2014/15. Среди тканей преобладают роскошные смеси кашемира и прочного твида. Основным элементом цветовой гаммы остается традиционный синий, варьирующийся от светлоголубого до темно-синего с оттенками желтовато-красного, бледно-желтого, темно-красного и темно-зеленого. «Благодаря инновационному применению традиционных тканей Кутзе и его команда смогли достичь превосходных результатов. – говорит де Йонг, – Смотреть на прошлое сквозь призму современности – это и есть суть нашего подхода к моде». «Наша одежда ориентирована на современного мужчину, который серьезно относится к своему стилю,
97
но иногда все же не прочь поэкспериментировать. – объясняет Кутзе, – Наша коллекция представлена прекрасным выбором современных тканей, выдержанных в классическом стиле. Мужчины без проблем найдут здесь все необходимое для создания уникального и неповторимого образа в новом сезоне».

42: City Secrets 都市秘境 阿姆斯特丹为喜爱独辟蹊径的造访者 们提供了丰富的选择。Lydia Bell带您 领略城中几处不为人知的隐秘风光 阿姆斯特丹虽已为世人所熟知，但城 中曲折的小路间仍有着诸多足迹罕至 的角落，供那些更具冒险精神的到访者 探索。De Pijp（“the Pipe区”）是其中
98 典型的例子，这是阿姆斯特丹最有活力 的地区之一。欧洲最大露天市场之一的 Albert Cuypmarkt是其跳动的心脏， 这个市场因一位19 世纪画家而得名。在 友好的苏里南、安的列斯、土耳其与摩 洛哥商贩的摊位上，水果、蔬菜，鱼、衣 服、鞋子、甚至相机等货品争相吸引着 人们的注意力。这个最能体现荷兰多元 文化的处所，也是品尝stroopwafels（ 焦糖夹心松饼）的好地方，在这里还可 以尝到以原始方法保存的鲱鱼，以及不 胜枚举的民间菜与各色美食。 Albert Cuypmarkt并非该区的全 部；临近的居民区内挤满了来自各种文 化的店铺、咖啡馆、餐馆和酒吧，这也 是其被称为阿姆斯特丹的拉丁角的原 因。在生气勃勃的 Pilsvogel 可以找到 城中最美味的沙爹鸡肉，而Couscous Club ——顾名思义——则是向北非文 化致敬，Moksi则为人们奉上最好的咖 喱，风味绝佳的沙爹与烤肉。 阿姆斯特丹的另一处转变则发生 在传统红灯区，非常偶然的，这里正逐 渐变成高级社区，在一片默 默 无闻的 店铺之间，时尚前卫的美发沙龙、艺术 空间与复古风格的高级咖啡馆如雨后 春笋般涌现。在 De Wallen 的心腹地 带，“ barcade ”（后工业风格酒吧与复 古娱乐长廊）与时髦咖啡店QuartierPutain于今日开幕，两者都坐落于过去 并不光彩的建筑物内，而De Pijp区自 诩为“摩登贵族”的Sir Albert 酒店也有 一些不甚有趣的近邻。 想了解阿姆斯特丹的高档精品店， 最应前往的区域— —恰好是排布紧凑 的—— de NegenStraatjes（九街），这 处宝库位于西部运河区某处受联合国 教科文组织保护的17到19世纪建筑中。 这里聚集着超过200家特色小店：从制 鞋店、陶瓷点、贩售本土时尚品牌的精 品店（如Hester van Eeghen及其引人 瞩目的配饰系列，还有Noa Lifestyle等 品牌）、概念店、家居用品店、菜谱专卖 店、熟食店等。 globalblue.com
历经10 年翻新，在 2013 年重新开 放的国家博物馆是不容错过之处，但城 中也有许多规模较小且鲜有人知的文 化机构值得一探。其中之一是TassenmuseumHendrikje，包袋与钱夹博物 馆，它位于一栋联排别墅中，由古董商 和包迷Hendrikje Ivo 运营。展览的亮 点，包括可追溯到16世纪的藏品，还有 从精致的法国丝绸新娘手包到闪亮夺 目的晚宴包等。距此几步之遥，是坐落 于一栋建于1671年的美丽私人住宅中 的Museum van Loon，这里收藏着古 董与荷兰古典大师的作品；到此一游不 仅能详实了解富有商贾家庭的日常生 活，还能欣赏到阿姆斯特丹丰富的运河 边建筑的典型内饰。 从历史感到实验性：Eye电影博物 馆和影院坐置身于一座看起来像停靠 着的宇宙飞船的未来风格建筑中，并已 成为阿姆斯特丹都市景观中的一大亮 点。除了关于电影方方面面的事无巨细 的展览，这里还有一家坐拥迷人海滨景 色的餐厅，并定期上映具有开拓性的独 立电影。在这里你甚至可以步入数码放 映间内，选择自己想看的经典电影静静 观赏。您可以从中央火车站搭乘免费渡 轮，这一城中最惬意也最具当地特色的 交通工具前往这里。 带孩子的游客还会被 Nemo 科学 博物馆所吸引，这里设 立着化学实验 室、视频制作间与巨型吹泡泡装置。最 后，De Hortus为人们提供了一种异想 天开的愉悦：这是世界上历史最悠久的 植物园之一，其中的蝴蝶园将为您带来 空灵飘逸的美妙体验。 albertcuypmarkt.nl, pilsvogel.nl, couscousclub.nl, moksi.nl, quartierputain.nl, siralberthotel.com, de9straatjes.nl, tassenmuseum.nl, museumvanloon.nl, eyeflm.nl, e-nemo.nl, dehortus.nl

48: In Focus: Suitsupply 聚焦品牌 在西服领域，有个创意十足的阿姆斯 特丹品牌正在全球范围内掀起一股风 暴。Ruairidh Pritchard带您深入探究 意大利人通常被认作是西服剪裁的领 导者，英国则以潇洒倜傥的招牌风格紧 随其后，然而在西服领域潮流正在 转 向，荷兰本土品牌 Suitsupply正引领着 订制西服的复兴。 一件好的西装永远不会落伍，无论 是经典的双排扣西服，还是繁复的晚礼 服，或是更为摩登的双扣运动外套，剪 裁都是男性服装中最重要的部分。量身 定制的西服曾是超级富豪的专属，也是 让男士们衣冠楚楚的不二法门。季节性 的成衣西服充其量可以穿上几年，并随 着潮流更替而不可避免地被淘汰，但是 量身定制的西服却是对个人形象的一笔 货真价实的投资。 服 装品牌 与定制商林立的伦敦 萨维尔街与米兰蒙特拿破仑大街，服务 着最为挑剔的顾客们，为一代代最善着 装的男士们提供定制与量体裁衣服务， 与此同时一股定制届的变革正在悄然 发生。驱动的源头即来自Suitsupply， 这个2000 年成立的品牌的创始者，是 27岁的阿姆斯特丹人Fokke de Jong， 他在就读大学期间就主办过多次“西服 派对”。作为品牌首席执行官的de Jong 在 企业中扮演着举足轻 重的角色，他 领导着品牌进军欧洲、美国— —实践 着自己“不用量身就能拥有最佳剪裁”的 宣言。 Suitsupply 的做法非常简单—— 就是量体裁衣，但是在大规模的基础 上，从而将定制带给普通消费者。品牌 将最上乘的面料、欧陆式风格与专业店 内量体服务相结合，将定制西服带给全 世界越来越多期望为传统剪裁注入个人 风格的年轻人。 “定制行业总让人觉得一成不变。
我们则采用了一种不那么系统性的方 法。” de Jong 解释道。这一点不仅体现 在Suitsupply的产品系列中，还影响着 其门店的地理位置。“我们很少出现在 其他时尚店铺的周围，” de Jong 表示。“ 我们将有趣的大空间，像是古老的教 堂，复式写字楼或宽敞的 Soho 复式阁 楼改造成舒适、宽松的购物环境。” “我们为那些想要创造自我空间的 人们而生— —不只是去匹配现有的选 择，而是要找到自己合适的，” de Jong 说。“我们希望与顾客们以自然的方式 相处，将产品知识与个性相结合来打造 一流的服务。” 品牌以将精致剪裁与杰出创意，和 精湛工艺及最新技术相结合，创造出在 市场上脱颖而出的产品而自豪。品牌为 在店内等候的顾客提供丰富的个性化 选择，而全定制西服的顾客，从与Suitsupply 专家的第一次进行咨询起的短 短五周内，就能拿到最后的成品。 对于即将到来的2014/15年秋/冬 系列，Suitsupply的首席设计师Murray Coetzee和他的团队向过去寻求灵 感，筛选出一批意大利顶尖的面料生产 商。“我们所做的一切都以经典意大利 剪裁为出发点，”Coetzee表示，“但我们 在研究中投入的精力，帮助我们创作出 更胜一筹的作品系列。” 这一季采用的图案包括低调的格 纹，与大胆的窗格 条纹以及经典千鸟 格，并将之运用于西服、大衣、衬衫、领 带和袜子等产品；一件无比优雅的双排 扣大衣是系列中众多出挑单品之一。 从奢华羊绒混纺面料到扎实花呢 料，材质也是2014/15年秋冬系列的重 中之重。同时，该系列对于传统蓝色进 行了各种延伸，从大胆的那不勒斯蓝到 深海军蓝，并 搭配以丰富多样的饱 和 色调，从焦橙色到赭色、暗红色与森林 绿。 “通 过 对 于传 统面 料的革命 性演 绎，Coetzee 与他的团队将这个系列带 入新高度。” de Jong表示。“通过现代的
100 眼光观察过去，也是我们演绎时尚的招 牌手法。” “我们设计的这些衣服，是为对款 式认真执着、同时也 追求趣味 性的现 代人所打造，”Coetzee 解释道。“有那 么多受经典风格启发的、摩登面料可选 择，我们为顾客们提供了在这一季打造 独特风格所需的一切。” 从Suitsupply 的成功可以明确推 断，定制西服已经从传统绅士衣橱的专 属，演变为现代人着装的必备，人们不 仅可以从剪裁完美的西服中受益良多， 还能自己选择面料材质与处理工艺—— 从而确保西服不仅适合自己的身材、也 符合自己的风格。 suitsupply.com

42: City Secrets Rahasia Kota Banyak yang ditawarkan Amsterdam bagi pelancong yang siap melangkah jauh dari jalan-jalan yang umum dilintasi. Lydia Bell menemukan beberapa tempat menarik yang tersembunyi di kota ini. Walaupun Amsterdam sudah dikenal luas, ada banyak sekali kantongkantong yang jarang dilintasi namun terkenal bagi pelancong yang lebih suka bertualang. Satu contoh misalnya De Pijp (‘the Pipe’), salah satu kawasan paling meriah di Amsterdam. Jantung utama kawasan ini adalah Albert Cuypmarkt, salah satu pasar luar ruangan yang terbesar di Eropa, diberi nama yang sesuai nama seorang pelukis abad ke 19. Buah-buahan, sayur-sayuran, ikan, pakaian, sepatu dan bahkan kamera bersaing untuk dilirik di berbagai tenda yang dikelola oleh para pedagang suka humor dari Suriname, Antila, Turki dan Maroko. Lokasi paling multikultur di Belanda ini adalah tempat yang sangat pas untuk mencicipi stroopwafels (wafel dengan isi karamel) dan ikan
101
haring mentah yang diawetkan, dan tak terhitung banyaknya hidangan dan makanan lezat dari berbagai etnik. Ada lagi selain Albert Cuypmarkt; kawasan sebelahnya dikemas dengan berbagai toko multikultur, kafe, restoran dan bar, sehingga daerah ini sering disebut dengan nama Quartier Latin of Amsterdam (Daerah Latin Amsterdam). Sate ayam yang paling enak di kota ini bisa ditemukan di Pilsvogel yang ramai, sementara Couscous Club dikhususkan buat – sesuai dengan namanya – makanan khas Afrika Selatan, dan Moksi menyediakan kari yang paling lezat, selain sate juga roti yang aduhai enaknya! Pengembangan Amsterdam lainnya adalah pembaruan kawasan lampu merah klasik yang terjadi bertahap dan tak beraturan dengan banyak tempat pangkas yang sangat trendi, ruang kesenian dan bar kafe papan atas dengan berbagai model gaya yang diapit gerai dengan reputasi kurang baik. Di jantung De Wallen, baru-baru ini ‘barcade’ (bar pasca industri yang dipadukan dengan tempat hiburan tempo dulu) dibuka bersama kafe modern, Quartier Putain, keduanya di dalam bangunan yang bisa membuat orang lupa dengan waktu, dan hotel Sir Albert dengan gaya "aristokrat modern"-nya di De Pijp berdampingan dengan bangunan menarik lainnya. Untuk mencoba butik papan atas Amsterdam, tempat yang paling bagus untuk dituju – dan serba lengkap – adalah Negen Straatjes (‘the Nine Little Streets’), harta
terpendam dari bangunan abad ke 17 hingga 19 di kawasan kanal barat yang dilestarikan Unesco. Di sini Anda akan menemukan lebih dari 200 toko khusus: toko pembuat sepatu, keramik, butik yang menjual mode pakaian buatan setempat (seperti Hester van Eeghen, dengan aksesorinya yang menambat hati, dan Noa Lifestyle), toko konsep, khusus perlengkapan rumah, buku masak-memasak, toko makanan dan lainnya. Rijksmuseum dibuka kembali pada 2013 setelah istirahat 10 tahun karena renovasi, dan adalah tempat yang menarik untuk dikunjungi, namun di sana juga ada banyak balai budaya yang lebih kecil dan sederhana yang menarik untuk dilihat Di antaranya Tassenmuseum Hendrikje, museum tas dan dompet, berada di sebuah rumah elegan yang dikelola oleh pedagang barang antik dan penggemar tas Hendrikje Ivo. Koleksi utamanya yang termasuk barang-barang berasal dari abad ke 16, mencakup mulai dari dompet pengantin sutera dari Prancis yang lembut hingga tas malam yang berkilau. Beberapa langkah tidak jauh dari sana terdapat Museum van Loon, sebuah rumah pribadi menarik yang dibangun tahun 1671, berisi barang-barang antik serta Dutch Old Masters; kunjungan ke tempat ini akan membuat Anda lebih memahami kehidupan keluarga pedagang kaya raya dan dekorasi khas rumah-rumah Amsterdam yang lebih mewah di tepi kanal. Dari sejarah sampai ke eksperimen: Museum flm dan bioskop Eye
102
berada di dalam bangunan futuristik yang terlihat seperti pesawat luar angkasa yang sudah purnabakti dan menjadi sorotan pemandangan kota Amsterdam. Selain pameran tentang semua yang terkait sinematik, ada juga restoran dengan pemandangan tepi laut yang menakjubkan, dan pemutaran layar reguler untuk flm-flm independen yang menggemparkan dan inovatif. Bahkan Anda bisa mendatangi stan digital untuk menonton secara senyap flm klasik pilihan Anda sendiri. Untuk ke sana, naik feri gratis dari stasiun Centraal, salah satu mode transpor pulang pergi yang nyaman dan bergaya setempat di kota ini. Orang tua mungkin tertarik ke Nemo, museum sains, yang memamerkan lantai laboratorium kimia, stan produksi video dan peniupan gelembung raksasa. Akhirnya, De Hortus menampilkan sebuah jenis kesenangan yang lebih unik: ini adalah salah satu kebun raya terpanjang yang pernah dibangun di dunia, dan rumah kupu-kupu-nya adalah tempat menyenangkan yang lembut dan menghibur. albertcuypmarkt.nl, pilsvogel.nl, couscousclub.nl, moksi.nl, quartierputain.nl, siralberthotel.com, de9straatjes.nl, tassenmuseum.nl, museumvanloon.nl, eyeflm.nl, e-nemo.nl, dehortus.nl 48: In Focus: Suitsupply Dalam Fokus: Suitsupply Bila menyangkut penjahitan, salah satu merek inovatif Amsterdam terbukti unggul di dunia. Ruairidh globalblue.com
Pritchard menemukan mengapa Italia biasanya dikenal paling unggul untuk padanan pakaian yang kontras, sementara Inggris tidak jauh di tempat kedua untuk gaya khasnya yang elegan, namun terkait penjahitan tidak demikian halnya, Suitsupply milik Belanda memimpin di depan dalam hal kebangkitan dibuat-sesuai-ukuran. Setelan yang bagus tidak pernah ketinggalan gaya, dan tidak soal apakah itu blazer dengan dua kancing dada klasik, jaket makan malam yang mentereng, atau pun jas olahraga dua kancing yang lebih kontemporer, penjahitan tak diragukan berperan sangat penting dalam lemari pakaian pria. Suatu saat ciri khusus orang super kaya akan memandang setelan yang dibuatsesuai-ukuran menjadi penentu berpenampilan rapi. Walaupun setelan musiman dengan ukuran bebas dapat, paling banter, bertahan beberapa tahun, melibatkan tren yang sedang berjalan pada saat datang dan - tak terelakkan – pergi, setelan yang dibuat dengan terampil menurut ukuran Anda merupakan investasi yang nyata dalam gaya. Walaupun rumah mode dan penjahit sesuai pesanan yang berada di London’s Savile Row dan Milan’s Via Montenapoleone telah menyediakan sesuai keinginan klien yang kritis, selain menawarkan layanan sesuai pesanan dan dibuat-sesuaiukuran untuk generasi dengan pria berbusana terbaisesuatu laink, ada juga sesuatu dari revolusi dibuatsesuai-ukuran yang sedang berlangsung. Tenaga pendorongnya adalah
103
Suitsupply, didirikan tahun 2000 oleh Fokke de Jong yang berusia 27 tahun dan asli orang Amsterdam, yang telah mengadakan banyak ‘pesta menjahit’ selama masa kuliahnya. Kini sebagai CEO, de Jong berperan penting untuk mesin Suitsupply, dan sedang memimpin cara baru untuk perluasan merek ke ke seluruh Eropa, AS – meneruskan mantra pribadinya untuk ‘menghasilkan sesuatu yang sangat pas tanpa mengepaskannya’. Itulah apa yang sedang dilakukan Suitsupply - layanan yang dibuat-sesuai-ukuran, namun dalam skala yang luas, menghadirkan sesuai pesanan ke banyak orang. Dengan mengombinasikan kain-kain terbaik, gaya Eropa, dan pakar untuk layanan penjahitan dalam toko, perusahaan ini membuka pintu menuju penyediaan pakaian sesuai permintaan bagi para pria muda yang semakin banyak di seluruh dunia yang ingin menambahkan gayanya sendiri ke penjahitan tradisional. ‘Penjahitan selalu terasa mapan, diterima apa adanya. Kami memiliki pendekatan yang lebih tidak sistematik akan hal ini,’ jelas de Jong. Ini terlihat tidak hanya pada koleksi-koleksi Suitsupply, tapi juga pada pilihan lokasinya yang tak lazim. ‘Kami jarang berada di antara semua merek mode lainnya,’ kata de Jong. ‘Kami mengubah ruangan besar yang menarik seperti gereja tua, kantor di griya tawang, atau Soho loft besar menjadi lingkungan yang nyaman dan rileks. ‘Bagi mereka yang ingin membuat ruangannya sendiri kami siap
membantu – tidak hanya untuk ditempati namun untuk menemukan apa yang paling cocok untuk mereka tempati’ kata de Jong. ‘Kami ingin membangun relasi dengan pelanggan kami dengan cara yang alami dan memadukan pengetahuan produk dengan kepribadian untuk menghasilkan layanan terunggul.’ Perusahaan ini merasa bangga karena telah memadukan bakat menjahit dan kreativitas dengan keahlian serta teknologi terkini untuk mencapai hasil yang menakjubkan, cepat dan efektif. Ada banyak sekali pilihan alternatif jahitan di dalam toko ‘sementara Anda menunggu’ yang ditawarkan, sementara itu setelan lengkap sesuai pesanan sudah bisa diterima pelanggan dalam waktu lima minggu sejak konsultasi pertama dengan spesialis Suitsupply. Untuk koleksi musim gugur/ dingin 2014/15 berikutnya, kepala desainer Suitsupply Murray Coetzee dan timnya mencari inspirasi ke masa silam, meneliti arsip dari beberapa produsen kain terbaik Italia. ‘Semua yang kami lakukan harus sesuai dengan kaca mata jahitan Italia klasik’ kata Coetzee, ‘namun selama kami di arsip kami telah menghasilkan koleksi yang sesungguhnya berada pada tingkat yang lebih tinggi.’ Kisaran corak mulai dari subtle check (kain bercorak v) hingga bold windowpane (kain bercorak kotakkotak besar) dan classic houndstooth (kain bercorak kisi diagonal), menghiasi semua setelan, jas, kemeja, dasi dan kaos kaki; mantel
104
dengan dua kancing dada yang sangat elegan adalah salah satu dari banyak unggulan koleksi. Tekstur juga penting untuk koleksi musim gugur/dingin 2014/15, dengan kain dari kasmir mewah yang dipadukan dengan wol yang kuat. Sementara itu, variasi pada warna-warna biru tradisional mengikat koleksi, mulai dari Neapolitan hingga biru laut, dengan variasi yang menggunakan rentang nuansa warna mulai dari bayangan jingga membara yang terang hingga kuning tua, merah kecoklatan dan hijau rimba. ‘Menggunakan kain warisan inovatif, Coetzee dan timnya telah mendirikan bar baru dengan koleksi ini,’ kata de Jong. ‘Ini adalah soal melihat masa silam melalui kaca mata modern, yang merupakan pendekatan khas kami untuk mode.’ ‘Kami mendesain pakaianpakaian ini bagi mereka yang bukan hanya memandang serius gaya, tapi juga suka menambah sesuatu yang keren padanya,’ papar Coetzee. ‘Dengan begitu banyak kain pelengkap dengan inspirasi klasik yang bisa dipilih, kami telah memberikan segalanya yang ia (Coetzee) butuhkan untuk mengekspresikan pernyataannya yang khas pada musim ini.’ Apa yang tampak jelas di balik kesuksesan Suitsupply adalah bahwa dibuat-sesuai-ukuran telah berkembang dari ciri khusus lemari pakaian dari pria tradisional menjadi hal utama bagi pria modern yang tidak puas sekadar memanfaatkan setelan dengan potongan sempurna, tapi juga ingin membuat globalblue.com
