Yigal Azrouël’s latest collection is a departure from his usual sources of inspiration, opting instead for a more abstract and imperfect approach. Embracing the concept of a work in progress, the designer has created a lineup that showcases his signature attention to detail and craftsmanship.
One notable aspect of this season’s collection is the use of flowing dresses with leather belted halter necks, as well as an airy trench coat made from recycled parachute fabric. Outerwear remains a strong point, with standout pieces like the black pebbled leather jacket with white piping and twill chore coats featuring distressed leather accents.
Denim, a perennial favorite of Azrouël, plays a prominent role in this collection. Stone-washed trousers in a silk-cotton blend and an indigo Japanese denim jacket with brown leather binding demonstrate the designer’s commitment to the versatile fabric.
Azrouël excels when he captures a laid-back, summer-in-the-city vibe. A standout piece is the lightweight sheer maxi dress, expertly draped from a single piece of fabric. The slouchy brown leather boyfriend jacket paired with lightweight denim paper bag shorts epitomizes his blend of masculine and feminine elements.
As Azrouël continues to evolve his aesthetic, focusing on these hero pieces that showcase his unique vision will be key. With a keen eye for detail and a dedication to quality, the designer’s work in progress is sure to result in a collection that resonates with fans of his effortlessly cool style.
