fall /winter 2023

redefining red carpet and special occasion looks, the fall 2023 collection entitled ‘vignettes’ depicts a series of stories told through texture. each story is a mini capsule combining the menswear and womenswear collections in a portrait of matching ‘his /hers /theirs’ pieces featuring the same textural detailing and offering a striking array of special occasion and evening wear options for all genders. each vignette illustrates a snapshot of chapters in a larger story of fascination and delight, engaging the consumer and creating a wearable experience not to be forgotten…
