Immaculately dressed in the midst of their adventures the early explorers of the highest mountains, remote landscapes and solitary wilderness inspired J.Lindeberg’s Autumn/Winter 2010 collection where garments are elegant but like all their collections cut for functionality.The utility and function found in work wear has emerged and evolved through generations of the army, the navy, hunters and farmers. Heralding back to a time where clothes were long lasting and crafted with a mission for survival.
In a more civilised context, authentic garments have been shaped and further developed with technical fabric mixes and construction methods, yet still remaining true to their heritage. More formal in their silhouette, utility outerwear is reworked ready for the urban challenges faced in a modern world. The padded herringbone down blazer combines classic tailoring characteristics with modern functionality. Work wear inspired shirting is layered over one another whilst boiled and heavy knitwear are worn under blazers. New cropped proportions provide a neater and precise silhouette.
The deep and intense colours range from icy blue skies to purple black nights and the numerous shades of grey found in the horizon of Scandinavia during the winter form the palette. These are contrasted against vibrant hues of the ever transforming colours of autumnal leaves. This is yet another stunning collection from those Scandinavian kings of effortless style.
