According to collection notes, “ZAGAL” is an exercise regarding the absorption of matter and form, where its balances have been exploited in order to develop a re-expression of the creation axes.

The color palette for the modern and avant-garde looking collection with Spanish influences consists of black and white with pops of golden yellow, greenish blue, copper and light gray for added richness. The softly draped silhouettes are constructed from Irish linen, mohair and extra-fine merino wool and adorned with pleats, layers and hat accessories for a touch of stylish attitude.

Instead of presenting a traditional film or runway, artist and designer Colm Dillane turned to stop motion animation to showcase his Spring/Summer 2021 collection. For models and crowd members, Dillane turned to his favorite icons from the past and present.

Key looks will be produced in September.

Family and friends sat along the banks enjoying a truly natural runway event.

Filled with a more earthy color palette, yet with bold pops of orange, blue and yellow in select men’s pieces, there’s a relaxed and calming feel to the overall collection. A custom camo print weaves its way throughout the collection and a beautiful rock print on a bag and outerwear are definite standouts for the season.

Ernest W. Baker SS21

Baker brand and the Spring/Summer 2021 menswear collection shown during Day 2 of Paris Fashion Week. The film created for the online event features the grandfather of designer Reid Baker, and was more of a home movie that was genuine and heartfelt — one of the most captivating fashion films that this editor has seen. It’s a story of life lessons passed from one generation to another, reflections of life including the good and bad, and hopefully new generations learning from these life lessons.

For the tailored collection presented, it’s a clear retro nod to a time of more sophisticated and formal dressing, but with clear modern influences that shatter conventional looks. There’s a mix of textures in an overall subdued, earthy palette with red accents, the brand monogram, and check prints for added interest.
