Following the Off-White Show, the next show for me was Acne Studios. The Swedish brand made its way into my wardrobe in recent years as I took an interest in its clean style.

Braced for the cold in a light green shearling Acne jacket, Alice Pinto and I attended alongside LPAC owners Koen & Tayler Prince-Fraser and a handful of other London based creatives.

The brand strayed away from what I pre-empted to be a minimalistic palette as it takes inspiration from ‘Counter- Cultures’ representing disparate demographics and industries. So instead, creative director Jonny Johansson offered an eclectic mix of colours and materials. From bronze to burnt orange Acne created a collection rich in texture such as the snakeskin suits and dyed cowhide coats.

As far as outwear goes, the collection was draped in elegant longline coats, double breasted jackets and other tailored pieces in earthy tones. The use of metallic materials created a regal aesthetic to the collection while adding structure through the tailoring.

From a personal perspective, with the exception of a few, I believe that each look has pieces that work perfectly in isolation allowing the owner have creative liberty in how they want to wear it. Whether its a tailored jacket or flared tweed trousers, these pieces work well as standalone pieces. Acne Studios has accurately represented a variety of industries in this collection so if you fancy a quick change they’ve done it for you!
