“I feel most designers would agree that pre-fall is without doubt one of the hardest collections to design,” Robert Geller mentioned at Rag & Bone’s menswear presentation. “You don’t have all the good things, the outerwear and layering to work with.” As an alternative Geller labored on items that could possibly be layered, utilizing gentle fabrications and modern know-how like Miramar, Airflex, and extra.
Staying true to his laissez-faire type, Geller created easy-to-wear units in linen tailoring, sporty terry sweatsuits, and glossy and comfy nylon shirting and chinos. He paid additional consideration to how males would put on these garments in the actual world by including purposeful particulars, like loads of pockets, to the garments. “Males want pockets. You want locations to place your telephones, keys, and issues as a result of we regularly don’t put on baggage,” mentioned Geller.
For a designer who cares as a lot about lovely garments as he does in regards to the sensible side, his philosophy this season was all about ease. “What we’re doing at Rag & Bone is that we’ve got a number of material innovation and fabrications that don’t wrinkle. Most of it is rather unfussy, however you continue to look fairly dressed up.”
