N°21 MEN
Spring Summer 2019
18th June 2018
You can breath a freedom air in N°21 men’s collection for the next spring summer, a fresh and innovative approach on redraw classic items in order to make them less severe, both in the structure and in the coordination. The big colored vinyl sheets, of great scenery impact, that hangs on the entrance of Garage 21, act as backdrop for the show: they start with black pieces of the first exits, strict but eclectic in cuts, to arrive to the boom of the transparent red vinyl of the trench (perfect in design and real must have of the collection). This material is used also to make shorts, always overlaid on a pair of white ones, shopping bags, pouchs and envelopes to wear around your neck, proposed in red, light blue and light brown.
Others more classic colors make their way, as spruce green and natural sienna, alternated with stronger shades of stamps, summoning exotic places. The shirts, suggested with postcard-like stamps positioned on the original breast pocket place, weared opened and backtracked, leaving exposed neck and breast in order to give importance to the colored stones necklace.
The wise pencil of Alessandro Dell’Acqua draws therefore new codes on menswear: he is an urban chic man who wears sartorial items in an original way, dressing effortlessly the two buttons jacket with shorts, abandoning sneakers for sandals and classic shoes revisited in a modern design.
