Acne Studios A/W 2015

Mood board: Jonny Johansson said he had ‘an idea of reducing volume and so I started to cinch these oversized coats with rope.’ His oversized stitching ran rampant throughout this collection trimming skin-tight wool jeans or running down the back of dresses like a braided vertebrae.
Best in show: The two-piece looks in this collection were standout, such as a long tunic top worn like a dress over matching stick-thin pants in a patchworked pattern of yellow, brown and white.
Finishing touches: The vibe here was hard core, underscored by nose piercings, and weird wrapped tape on the curved heels of sock shoe boots.
