This season Acne Studios transported us to a lavish world of high-octane glamour, flirty and fun whilst serious and sophisticated in equal measure

The Brief

“I find youth’s relation to luxury striking and wanted to explore it. We brought what we discovered back to the Acne Studios universe and created an entire wardrobe for the social calendar – business, parties, travelling and leisure including swimwear. The colour palette is classic with acid accents. Fabrics include organza silk, satin, terrycloth and different treatments of leather,” says Jonny Johanson, Creative Director at Acne.

The collection

This season Acne Studios transported us to a lavish world of high-octane glamour, flirty and fun whilst serious and sophisticated in equal measure. Detail came in the shape of humorous lipstick tube and fruit and veg prints brandished on silks, whilst suit jackets came morphed into dresses and long-line waistcoats were worn upon bare chests, teamed with caramel slacks. Sheer flesh baring fabrics were also in favour, whilst a short teal terrycloth towel dress closed the show, surely a nod to youth’s growing obsession with luxury.

Where to wear it

The towel dress complete with gold chain choker, to the spa in Monte Carlo of course; the low-cut blazer dress, to the office, surely; and the sheer emerald trouser and elongated hood dress duo, for travel days on one’s private jet.
