MILAN, Jan 15, 2012/ FW/ — With musicians Joe Jonas and Charlie Siem in attendance, Italo Zucchelli unveiled his Fall 2012 Calvin Klein Collection in Milan today.
Describing the collection as “an urban inspired take on timeless sportswear essentials,” Italo Zucchelli proposed 46 looks that will blend nicely in any city while also turn heads après ski.
For Fall 2012, Mr. Zucchelli updated the classics as he created oversized proportions and used tactile materials.
Reflecting the textures and colors of city life, fabrics included cashmere, alpaca, mohair, merino and tweed in a tonal palette of camel, navy, grey heather, gotham and black.
A diffused light print seen in suiting and outerwear added a graphic vibrancy to the collection.
Looks were paired with detachable hoodies designed in luxurious alligator, felted wool and quilted nylon, as well classic lace ups and loafers modernized with a slim, polished aesthetic or a more rugged, textural look.
As previously announced, the runway show was live streamed and will shortly be made available at calvinklein.tv.
