Sneak Peak at Spring/ Summer 2015 from HASPEL
09 Sep 2014 by Simon Mayorga in Ego, Fashion, Home, Style

Haspel, which invented and popularized the seersucker suit more than 100 years ago, affirms and advances this staple for Spring/Summer 2015, presenting a modern vision of the summer uniform. The traditional blue-and-cream seersucker suit kaleidoscopes into color with versions in tan, red, green, optic white and tone-on-tone. Tailored pieces hang out with sportswear pieces as military-inspired outerwear, jacquard woven shirting, windbreaker-weight topcoats and naval deck knits are layered in.
“We wanted to revisit Haspel’s roots this season” said Sam Shipley of design team Shipley & Halmos. “For Fall 2014, we used a lot of heavier fabrics and had a big emphasis on texture, but the spring collection is all about seersucker. It’s a very versatile fabric that is not just for derby parties and country clubs anymore.”
Part retrospective, part reinvention, Haspel stretches its iconic suit beyond its lawn party past to offer a clean, modern vision of the famed puckered cotton.
Haspel’s Spring/Summer 2015 collection is presented by and features Jockey slim fit crew tees and low-rise underwear. Jockey has been creating innovative quality-crafted products since 1876 and in its current campaign, “Supporting Greatness,” it celebrates this legacy of supporting great men of the past and today – literally, emotionally and functionally – with a superior product.
