Michael Le Revealed during Paris Fashion Week almost exactly a year ago, Grace Wales Bonner is soon to reprise her collaborative relationship with adidas. Like her mainline collection, the pieces to come — which are equal parts footwear and apparel — bear a bright, floral sense of color and an inimitably strong attention to detail.
Bathed in sportswear influence, the clothing strikes a balance between both labels’ identities. While the framework is unmistakably adidas, the dressings, details, and palette are uniquely of Wales Bonner DNA. Fabrics are dyed in vintage-esque violets and muted yellows, trims at times contrast in deep greens, and the Stripes themselves are often woven in a way deceptively hand-darned.
The Nizza and Samba silhouettes at the charge follow a similar execution. Their designs alone and at a glance are no doubt quite ordinary, but upon closer inspection, their merit is quite evident. Sure, the colorways are the most reserved of the designer’s past works, though that’s likely intentional as they better complement the aforementioned wearables. In quality, each is quite a sizable upgrade, featuring satin linings, topstitch embellishments, crochet laces, and much, much more.
For a closer look at the capsule, see the images below. A release is due to arrive via adidas.com and select retailers on March 26th.
