Lacoste A/W 2015

Mood board: Under the steady stewardship of Felipe Oliveira Baptista, Lacoste has reached some exciting new heights. This season's iteration of the French house's sporting heritage came to life in a modern, lighthearted way.
Finishing touches: Louche, 1970s era influences, such as silk tracksuits and teddy fur overcoats, were mixed together with asymmetric tennis dresses, flowing trenchcoats and striped knits that bore bold markings, reminiscent of those found on tennis courts.
Best in show: The collection had a freedom to it, partly through the use of lightweight fabrics like slubbed canvas and billowing jerseys, but also from Baptista's modern spin on iconic pieces. Tailored overcoats, for one, featured sleeves that could be unfastened to suit over-the-shoulder wear. With men's and womenswear pieces coolly mirroring each other every step of the way, Lacoste's carefree appeal couldn't seem more universal.
