Nicholas K - F/W 2016

A bit more dressed up, but still following the same style they do.  During the MBFW New York, the designer and his sister, presented another amazing futuristic and nomadic collection.
The main inspiration was Arcosanti, an experimental town in the desert of Arizona, built to embody Paolo Soleri's concept of arcology. “When I saw it for the first time, what struck me is how modern it still feels, even though it was built in the ’70s. It’s nomadic, futuristic, and most important, it’s sustainable," explained Nicholas.
Driven by the great images, the collection also follows a full monochromatic palette; black, gray, sand, and a dark purple the brand calls “nightshade.”

Sandrine Philippe - "UNPLUGGED" F/W 2016

For the F/W 2016 Menswear collection the house of Sandrine Philippe Paris has shed its last skin.
"The male silhouette of Sandrine Philippe Paris is an escape, it lets go of this overpopulated megalopolis in order to return to its original being. The human beast makes its appearance in small doses, minimal to begin with such as small details on the plastron of a t-shirt, before extending savagely to greater detail on garments."
The wearer represent a freedom of everything that surrounds us; a person that is more certain of his provenance, his direction and above all, sure of his person.

A New Cross - "SABANA" A/W 2016

The newest collection is entitled SABANA (Savanna), the place where the brand was born. Inspired by the Colombian landscape, culture and history of the people the collection is driven by the idea of transmitting this heritage through the design of the clothes and textiles.
The exploration of Colombian craftsmanship is an essential part of the development of materials for each collection: a belief in the craft of manual labor as a process full of history and identity that gives strength to the garments.
