The bass of electronic music and the heavy hangover of a night well-spent are the nostalgic inspirations behind Tim Coppens’ Spring 2017 collection. The Belgian menswear line pays homage to these lively, youthful memories in the form of chic street wear looks that easily transition from daytime leisure to all nocturnal festivities. Color blocking is a key theme throughout the collection, indicative of the bright flashing lights of a hopping club. Effortless pieces like blouson bombers, silk tops and breathable knits allow for hours of endless dancing.
Coppens’ line would not be complete without the manifestation of the full story, however. The aftermath of the party is apparent through Coppens’ use of scattered geometry and loose-fitting garments that nearly drip off the models’ shoulders. An eclectic use of layering overcoats and Under Armour alludes to an intentionally haphazard pairing of items – in sum, it’s the wardrobe thrown together after an evening of pure debauchery. And needless to say, we love it.
