The new language of Chalayan

"Audition 1" is the Autumn Winter 2020 collection presented at Hussein Chalayan's London Fashion Week Menswear

"The collection was born from a reflection on how we can be shaped by the environment and how it can in turn shape our vision of the world and clothing. For Audition 1 I decided to explore new cultures that use or react to their surrounding environment in a different way from mine. " Hussein Chalayan

Chalayan's conceptual approach continues to be renewed also for the Fall Winter 2020-2021 presented at the LFWM , this time with a more international cut. The starting point is the Aboriginal population who, with their Draming-tacks, performative rituals and oriental songs, marked the earth creating a real path. In the same way, the Cypriot designer's " Audition 1" collection wants to trace its new path, bringing it back to an urban context, in order to create a new language. There is no shortage of tailored cuts with a minimalist and utilitarian imprint: pockets, shots, volumes and details for styling. An intriguing collection that also includes some pieces made in Boloni co-lab that will take part in a Chalayan x Boloni capsule collection will be announced during the course of the year.
