Since Kim Jones became the Men RTW Artistic Director, the denim silhouette has been more and more represented in the shows through different inspirations.

 

As an essential of the Men’s wardrobe, we decided to launch a global denim offer with an authentic identity influenced by the House history: the trunks and the Monogram.

Made in Europe, and Japan for the first time, we worked on a permanent offer with authentic denim, stretch denim and exclusive washes with a specific savoir-faire on fabrics and attention on washes.

 

 

To enhance the specific savoir-faire of the collection, we launch a special Heritage capsule, telling the story of different exceptional trunks, with their own characteristics and travel history through exclusive details inspired by trunk corners, handles, etc…

Crafted with the authentic Japanese and European denim savoir-faire, these pieces have been made with a special attention to technical details to bring a feeling of comfort and to fit various kinds of silhouettes.
