Still Riding in December

Woke up to snow in Berlin today. Does this mean it’s time to put the bike in the basement? I am going to try to delay the moment as long as I can. Dutch brand Maium makes outerwear for biking in challenging weather. The oversize coats can extend over the bike to protect hands and legs while riding.

Outerwear ReDux

The setting for the Fay presentation was impressive: A large space in the company’s head office with blue screen. Secondly, I liked the collection of  menswear and womenswear outerwear based on re-interpreted  classic looks.  A change from the brand’s normal DNA.

Inspired from Antonelli Firenze

I met the team from Antonelli Firenze in Milan at Fashion Week. I was not familiar with the highend brand. As a womenswear brand, their niche is luxury looks. The designs are on the classic side, not what a person would call “daring” or on the edgy. The pieces are for long term style. If a shopper buys a coat from the label, you can bet it will be worn for years. The quality of the material and craftsmanship are top.

I liked the patterned outerwear. A statement coat should be in everyones closet. The one problem could be if it goes out of style. I do not see that being a problem with Antonelli, consider this an investment piece. The design is grounded and the material is rich, always fashionable.
