”LEAVING HOME”
”LEAVING HOME”
This story takes off in the journey of the youth, throughout the inner and outer self; the childhood home and the strong will to grow independent. The kind of adventure you have to explore on your own. This story is in particular about an ambiguous lonely trip, an identity seeking hiking tour in the Swedish mountains during summer. A time to turn yourself inside out and explore rootlessness and freedom.
This AW18 journey is characterized by pale and faded colourways, decorated by outdated textile wallpapers imprinted with Swedish highland flowers. Functions inspired by vintage outdoor wear, draw strings, technical fabrics and heavy denims, is balanced with the aestethic fragile expression, where garments are turned inside out, symbolizing the idea of showing your inner person. The use and function of the hiking uniform, modernized and put in a new context, will be vital to carry on through this story into the coming autumn / winter 2018.
