The collection opened in restraint: stone, taupe, coffee, grey, navy, and black tones formed its architecture. These earthbound shades were interrupted by sharp accents of scarlet, cobalt, indigo, pale yellow, lavender, and vermilion. The contrasts did not overwhelm but punctuated, like sudden notes in an otherwise measured score, awakening the eye within the calm.
Fabrics revealed themselves as a dialogue between density and lightness. There were rich wools, alpaca and yak blends, elongated knit collars that rose almost to the face, their weight counterposed with silk sets that seemed to glide, satin surfaces catching and releasing light, twill carrying its structure quietly, and leather rendered with sculptural precision. Coated and lacquered finishes lent sheen, as though surfaces were designed to hold light as much as shadow.
