Porsche Design has launched its new AW2019 fashion collection, drawing inspiration from city racers. The collection is an expression of personal freedom, authenticity, and the courage to perform. Unmistakable driving-inspired accents and dynamic shapes characterize the state-of-the-art designs, resulting in relaxed, first class looks, which effortlessly blur the lines between business and casual outfits.
Materials with a technical look, along with laminated sections, create a fascinating interplay between matte and glossy textures, while graphic elements incorporate vivid contrasts into tonal materials. Vibrant blues add an exciting pop of color to the cityscape base tones of asphalt, black, white, navy, and grey/violet. Elegant dark colors like mahogany, deep shades of green, and petrol complete the color scheme, giving the collection an uber-masculine feel.
For the first time in a Porsche Design collection, a unique highlight by using Porsche seat belt material. This slightly metallic, shiny material featured in Porsche sports cars is a standout element of the collection. It is used as a logo emblem on jacket sleeves, as a striking underlay on pieces, such as the Storm Proof Thermal Bomber Jacket and the Ombre Lightweight Jacket, and as a defining detail on multiple styles.
As a key element of the collection, the featured patterns used also draw inspiration largely from Porsche cars. Classic textures, such as Pepita, herringbone, and the popular houndstooth car seat pattern get a modern upgrade with clean, contemporary silhouettes, and technical details. An unexpected item from the collection is this 3-piece suit in grey/black houndstooth.
Also based on the renowned Porsche seats is the quilted finish on specific pieces, like the Diamond Quilt Airlift Jacket. This season’s collection also sees the popular TecFlex material taking a leading role. An integral element of numerous designs, it is used as both a stylish accent and a structural
pattern.
Keeping with tradition, leather also plays an important part in this season’s assortment. Striking embossed textures, motocross-inspired elements, and special details – like a detachable fur collar and logo underlay – add a distinct sense of authenticity and quality to key pieces, such as the TecFlex MotoX Jacket and the aviator-style Leather Bomber Jacket.
In addition to outerwear, the Porsche Design “City Racer” Autumn/Winter Collection includes a full range of accessories, bags, eyewear, footwear, and men’s jewelry.
The collection is now available worldwide in Porsche Design stores and online at www.porsche-design.com.
