ÁNGEL SCHLESSER presents his new collection for the fall-winter 2024/2025 season, titled 'THE PRESENCE OF THE ABSENCE', within Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Madrid’s Off fashion shows. The proposal stands out for its shapes, volumes, colors and textures, which, combined with the fashion house’s characteristic fabric, creating pieces of art that fill a space with the presence of absent elements.
Beginning with minimalism, functionality and avant-garde that have always characterized the brand, creative director, Alfonso Pérez, formulates solid foundations that are reflected in the base of the patterns and end up defining the collection’s silhouette. Volume is the protagonist, with classic garments that refer to contemporary architecture, presenting sinuous shapes in contrast with defined and straight lines.
The color palette includes winter and fall colors such as black, blue, beige and white, which contrast with red. The different textures are achieved thanks to warm fabrics such as wool, cashmere, felt and leather, as well as more fluid and lighter fabrics such as chiffon, organza and crepe.
