END. CURATES: URBAN FUNCTIONALITY

As the pace of contemporary life accelerates, the necessity for clothing that is functional, stylish and relaxed has continued to grow. Taking a modern approach to metropolitan dressing for our latest END. Curates editorial, we look to celebrate an aesthetic sensibility that caters to inner city living, with a focus on layering, warming knits and casual silhouettes. Infusing comfortable ensembles with technical garments, Urban Functionality turns the lens onto garments designed to keep up with the speed of your always-on-the-move life, whether you’re racing across the city to your next shoot or to the pub for an after-work drink.

Ensuring premium comfort, the edit pairs athletic sneaker styles from Asics, Mizuno, Saucony and Salomon with baggy denim from Our Legacy, WTAPS and Acne Studios, while outerwear from Arc’Teryx Veilance and Adsum introduces a subtle inflection of outdoor style. Earth toned sweats from Lady White Co. encourage a further casual outlook, while a knitted sweatshirt from premium Japanese minimalist label Auralee and an oversized check coat from mfpen infuse the looks with a luxurious twist.

Warming pieces from Café Mountain, Snow Peak, Visvim and orSlow further entrench the looks in the world of layering, offering solace from the bitter cold of early winter. Completing the visual codes of the edit, accessories from Montbell, Hender Scheme, Maison Margiela, and Comme Des Garçons Homme introduce final pops of outdoor and luxury appeal, offering a further sense of versatility and personalisation.
