Refined Rebel for A/W 18/19

Refined Rebel is inspired by a woman who likes to somewhat push the limits while keeping a signature, tailored style. It is very much inspired by recent trends of elevated streetwear and the reemergence of 1960s-70s beatnik culture and mod fashion. The essence of this collection references many designers in the 1960s who started designing for club kids and the creative, fashion forward individuals at the time and sold in stores with trendy, futuristic environments. More boxy and voluminous silhouettes are created in twills, corduroys and black denim to uphold structure and to allow for a deconstructed/frayed look at the hems. The addition of ruffles done in layered leather and lace as well as velour blouses freshen up these heavy fabrics with a feminine, modern edge.
