Event : Global Talents Digital / Sustainability edition
Brand : SL1P knitwear
Designers : Vyacheslav Abdenov and Vladislav Ivanov
For Slava Abdenov and Vlad Ivanov, the founders of the brand, the principles of responsible fashion at the stages of both consumption and production are of utmost importance. Instead of traditional seasonal collections, the brand team produces small capsules to prevent waste and as such every piece is a limited edition collectible, inspired by their own like-minded heroes: artists, graphic designers, and architects. Each capsule is produced in a limited volume.
In addition, designers use recycled materials in their production to support the responsible fashion ideas of this event.
This live collection showed us streetwear with a difference – geometric shapes of the longsleeve hoodies (all unisex and oversized, in various combinations of black, white, grey and red) were coupled with beanie hats but also with stylish black blazers.
Knee-high socks, pre-distressed knit cardigans and slacker pants all brought a grunge vibe to this collection. One imagines this is what Cobain would’ve worn in 2020 – a somewhat drier and more conforming take on the grunge fashion, with a definite edge and a sustainable concept.
