SUNSET ICONS BY REPLAY
One passion, one vision, one city: Replay’s “Sunset Icons”The fit opts for loose, soft and comfortable shapes, with raw cuts, rips and fraying underlining the collection’s relaxed mood, which reappears in the choice of garments: bombers, bermudas, dresses, jumpsuits and ponchos, all in different versions and customisations. The diversity of L.A. is expressed in the materials, which have been carefully selected and researched, particularly in terms of handle and weight. Unusual textures and plays on contrasts emerge, particularly in the womenswear, taking in cool lightweight fabrics, like linen and cotton, georgette, to vintage leathers, velvet/chenille, knitwear, right down to many raw and slubbed materials. The colour palette instead offers two extremes: on the one hand lots of colour and therefore different shades of dark blues, indigo and sky blues, as well as white, military green, red/coral, baby blue, fuchsia, beige, grey, gold, silver and black. Otherwise plenty of sun bleached and cold-dyed watercolour hues, which fade with each wash to produce new nuances each time.
