In late January, Chitose Abe of sacai brought a surprising element to Paris Fashion Week by revealing a major collaboration with Moncler (MILAN:MONC.MI -1.04%) on the runway. Hypebeast previously offered a detailed view of this collection, which is now becoming available worldwide.
This marks the first collaboration between sacai and Moncler in a decade, coinciding with Moncler’s 70th anniversary. For this milestone, Abe has crafted a collection that looks towards the future while honoring the past. The series, envisaging the year 2093, presents four distinct looks that showcase advanced layering techniques. The sacai-Moncler collaboration is designed for versatility, ideal for urban environments and mountain terrains, and tailored to suit the needs of space-age adventurers.
The collection is curated for both men and women, featuring a dual-tone color scheme of black and grey. This palette highlights the range’s outdoor essentials, which include hybrid designs combining puffer jackets, fuzzy vests, and pleated dresses. The line also features oversized suits paired with tone-on-tone outerwear designed for easy removal. The collection is rounded off with adjustable trousers and bibs, offering a harmonious blend of masculine and feminine elements.
