Remus Uomo
Spring Summer 2007
CONCEPT:
The signature of Remus Uomo is a collection of contemporary continental cuts. The finest fabric is sourced worldwide and combined in a collection that reflects the uncompromising style and essence of this ultimately modern brand. Fresh takes on traditional classics combine crisp tailoring with influences from the streets of Europe to create a range of key pieces for the modern man.
KEY COLOURS:
a mixture of warm pastels and flashes of bold primaries have continued from previous seasons but are more refined. Subtle shades of fern, midnight blue, and taupe interact with brash highlights of apple green, duck-egg blue, and lobster creating an exciting new freshness for casual lounging. Suitings are demure with subtly coloured pinstripes echoing the crisp colours of shirts.
KEY FABRICS:
Mohair and natural-stretch suitings allow the modern professional a new twist on formal-wear, while a variety of coloured stripe effects in wool bring a new twist to the influence of Italy. Pure cotton and cotton/nylon blends are key for outer casualwear, whereas washed cotton and linen separates allow ease and coolness for semi-formal occasions. Soft sheep nappas and distressed goatskins form the basis of a luxurious leather selection. Fine knits and a variety of bold shirtings in pure cotton and cotton/linen blends complete a collection that provides for every occasion.
KEY PIECES:
Suiting; A new slimmer silhouette joins the Remus stable, with SB 1, 2, & 3 varieties and matching slim-leg trouser. Side vents & AMF stitching add a new continental twist, while lining designs are more refined and cleverly used.
Jackets; softer construction adds ease and relaxation. Fabrics are light in weight and faded in colour. A greater emphasis on casualness is heightened by the use of soft cottons and linens washed out to create a feeling of vintage comfort. Linings in geometric and paisley prints add a cool, summery, modern air. Cottons also smarten up, with cool crisp sateen effects and AMF stitching reflecting the sharpness seen on the catwalks.
Trousers; soft cottons and high-performance wool blends combine with a range of styles that provide a modern basis for any wardrobe. Plays on yoke details, pocket styles, and leg-width all create effortless stylishness and flair.
Outerwear; high performance Poly-Cotton-Nylons and soft leathers add to styles that have a clever combination of form and function. Seam-lines and pocket details allow interaction with the wearer that is unparalleled.
Jerseywear; sandwashed and brushed jerseys, gassed interlocks and brushed fleeces carry prints and appliqués with a clean contemporary silhouette playing against washed and faded fabrics. Stripes are a key look this season with colours combining to give a sporty yet contemporary casual look.
Shirting; tapered fit classic shirts compliment the suiting silhouette. Colour is now a major player with strong base colours highlighted by sharp stripes.
The Remus Uomo Spring/Summer'07 collection is a complementary mix of discipline and creativity, forming a range of design essentials for the modern man.
