Internance
Minimalism and nomadism come together for a theme that’s focused on reviving original and timeless paired down styles. The palette is based on the myriad variations of sand and earth nuances accompanied by five sun-bleached pastels. The print direction focuses on tribal motifs and photo-landscape images that are fused with a kaleidoscope effect.


Polychromy
We awaken the senses with a techno-edge theme focused on the positive energy of light and color. An emphasis on electric and glitter effects boosts the basics and infuse new life into casual wear. The palette is made up of bright tones that are offset by intense neutrals to form lyrical and dissonant harmonies. The print direction takes classic prints and infuses them with saturated colors and overlapping 3d effects.

Genesis
An organic and lyrical theme inspired by the mysteries of the underworld. Aquatic life inspires this story that looks at art nouveau and avant-garde styles for silhouettes that are all about metamorphoses. The chameleon color range is made up of aquatic turquoises, purple tints and telluric brownish reds. The palette is punctuated with two supernatural pastels and two iridescent hues. The print direction creates a new camouflage with nature motifs that are layered in an impressionistic manner with a focus on solarized feathers ad re-colored forest landscapes.
