Negating the norm, the house strays into uncoddled experimentation welcoming new Amiri blueprints
Echoing their established house codes and signature archetypes, the house of Amiri presents their latest Pre-Spring 2023 Womenswear collection. With the label’s iconic silhouettes shrunken, cropped, elongated, and skewed, the collection illuminates creative director Mike Amiri’s bid toward in-house experimentation and newfound expression. Born from artisan craftsmanship, looks underline a factor of elegance shown through the interchangeability of shapes and solutions guided by sculptural craft and adjustable detailing. Here, an exchange between versatility and the rigor of Amiri’s savoir-faire is spotlighted.
Upon dissection, the collection begins to unveil itself as a symbol of freedom and interpretation. With workwear and tailoring identified as interchangeable, seams are replaced with button fastenings, and the pragmatism of cargo pants is elevated. Lines shift with ease between form-fitting and oversized, emitting notions of soft masculinity and empowerment. Bursts of vibrant pink and blue accent a neutral canvas built for layered, tonal plays and textural statements. Fabrics are soft yet tough – leather, wool, nylon, shearling, velour – borrowed from the worlds of sport and utility, repurposed for the everyday.
Leisurewear looks to adopt a classic yet elegant spirit as luxury fabrics are rendered and cut in the house’s classic kick-flare silhouette, while, by contrast, traditional bouclé suiting is relaxed in boxy fits with sports-inspired drawcord waists. These details pave the way to inform wearers of the silhouette’s cocooning effect and also become a contemporary idea of the bespoke, offering multiple interpretations and transformations. Hallmark hybrid design codes splice denim with tweeds and vintage track tricot jerseys to forge a new structure. For the first time, Amiri introduces their Malibu Boot as a Pre-Spring 2023 essential, crafted in the house’s signature style, suede and shearling-lined, and available for both men and women.
