#DRESSLIKEAWOMEN

AW18-19 A utilitarian tone embodies this Autumn Winter 2018 collection with simple yet beautifully structured shapes. Unique pieces blending modernity with classic style stand out against a traditional olive green, black and navy blue broken up with accent of gold, rustic orange and burgundy. Balancing strong heavy outerwear fabrics with soft and refined dresses , this collection showcase a polished tomboy chic appeal, strong yet feminine.

The fascinating subject of what women wear to work is the primary inspiration of this collection. Throughout history, workplace dress code was imposed on women by their employers, to neutralize femininity in exchange for a sense of professionalism and authority. Feminism has been enjoying an accelerated popularity in the last years. The female community including doctors, soldiers, servicewomen, athletes and many more reacted by Twitting under the hashtag #dresslikeawoman to express their independence and freedom in how they dress in work environment. This AW18 collection is a tribute of this brilliant collective effort to combat gender stereotype.

Modern femininity is seen throughout the collection.

Clean and unclustered lines combining with utilitarian details are the core of the collection.

Structured pockets and detachable panels are placed to accentuate the functionality aspect of the collection.

Continuing the label's commitment to sustainability, this trans-seasonal collection reveal a adaptable, sculpted but effortless aesthetics using premium materials and meticulous tailoring to create luxury staple pieces that lives beyond years. Flattering and yet functional wearable designs further showcase the ethos to dress independent and distinctive women.
