Patrizia Pepe At Pittimmagine Uomo 2017

A CLASSIC-CONTEMPORARY style, caught somewhere between TAILORING
and STREET CULTURE, which draws inspiration from the world of sport.
This, in a few words, sums up the Men’s AW17 collection.
Classic pieces from the male wardrobe are customised using accessories and hi-tech
finishes without compromising on elegance and rock-and-roll spirit:
the OVERCOAT and DUFFEL COAT are made from cloth and customised with nylon mesh;
the SUITS and SHIRTS, which feature the distinctive fitted cut, featuring detailing like ZIPS,
REFLECTORS, ELASTIC BANDS, HEAT-SEALED ACCESSORIES AND RUBBER FINISHES;
the JACKETS conceal surprising interiors, with unusual colour combinations
and hi-tech materials used.
The care taken to choose materials is as much about comfort as it is their hi-tech attributes:
soft bouclé with an irresistible look;
white melange cloth, micro jacquard and maxi stripes;
ripstop, ultra-light nylon in a range of colours;
technical jersey for suits and coats;
flannel fabric and shiny/matt jacquard;
double checks with chenille inserts;
fluorescent pinstripes, which add drama to a classic;
eco-shearling, leather and clean denim, combining hi-tech and sartorial appeal.
The knitwear features sleek merino, both cold dyed and with nylon detailing;
two-tone jacquard with fluorescent vanisé contrasts;
needle-punched, tone-on-tone stripes;
mixed carded cashmere;
chunky threads known as “emptied”, brining lightness to the product.
The footwear, which draws inspiration from gym shoes and classic styles, uses brushed
calf with fluorescent inserts.
The colour palette is clearly inspired by the URBAN vibe, focusing on BLACK and WHITE,
various shades of GREY and BLUE, with cherry RED and flashes
of FLUORESCENT GREEN also featuring.
The result of this marriage of tailoring and activewear is a new CONCEPT of dressing, where
clean, minimalist lines accentuate the sophistication and attention to detail of the pieces.
