At Play
in the Jardin Mabille
|
|
Named after the Jardin Mabille, the nighttime hotspot in 19th-century Paris, Alexis Mabille’s new menswear collection is as festive as it is spontaneous. Like a modern-day faun, this man charms with natural ease and sophisticated freshness: he has fun with dressing and creates a look that’s all his own, whether it’s for a jaunt through the countryside or a walk down city streets. He loves checked shorts and jackets mixed casually with sportswear and streetwear, revisited with guipure, studs and arabesque details. His silhouette is sharp. He plays the romantic in a dotted veil shirt and cotton piqué trousers, that are rendered edgy with a shot of Sicilian black, an element that punctuates each look. He may be a night owl or a morning lark - no matter! He embraces life, comfort and fun, opting for the elegance of a white smoking worn with a liberated attitude – with bow-tie shirts, “Jardin Mabille” sweatshirts and embroidered sneakers. |
