MEN'S FALL-WINTER
2023/2024 COLLECTION
Paris Fashion Week
17 - 22 JANUARY 2023
Founded in 1961, the Courrèges House revolutionised the world of fashion and design. Movement, purity, colour, light such are the hallmarks and distinctive style of Courrèges. Eminently optimistic, Courrèges has blazed a trail in every field where it has ever dared to venture. With the announcement of the appointment of Nicolas Di Felice at the head of the House's Artistic Direction, the revival of this legendary brand is taking on a new dimension, in keeping with Courrèges's original ideals.
COURRÈGES
MEN'S FALL-WINTER
2023/2024 COLLECTION
An 'all-seeing' Eye inhabits the collection's unisex jersey separates, like a comforting sign guiding us forward. Neo-camouflage tortoise-shell and seditious silk-screen prints meet office-wear staples that fit the hybrid realities of a new generation of professionals.
The rigorous architecture of tailoring outlines elevated details of subcultural streetwear, expressing Di Felice's desire to incorporate a contrasting range of impulses into his razor-sharp definition of shape. Courrèges' signature geometry is subverted through dissonant materials: heritage crepe is met with punk-ish wool caviar and glimpses of technical lingerie woven from an archival pattern. Combat boots are fashioned in stretch leather and worn thigh-high on men, blurring tropes of gender and tradition. It is convertible daywear seen through Nicolas Di Felice's twisted take on tailoring.
From the unrest of dissolving days comes a renewed spirit of community invigorated by a collective drive to reclaim the present: « United Resistance, Together in the Here and Now »
