Jil Sander SS15
You can’t get anywhere without bumping into sports these days. And Jil Sander’s SS15 collection is no exception, with elastic additions to minimal and watercolour-toned suits, and hi-tops and sandals with a hint of those ubiquitous summer sliders, bringing the outfits to a close.
Inspirations from musical vibrations in the form of rhythmic stripes and pleats meander throughout the collection, which remains poised and elegant, even when the model has a leather backpack slung over his shoulder. Prints are also inspired by audio, via its written format: musical notation, cut up and spliced together. In the hands of another collection, this could be tacky and gaudy, but snipped into constituent parts and recreated as if in a kaleidoscope, its form remains true to the Jil Sander archive: minimalist and chic.
