After the success of the last edition, Jaime Álvarez returns to Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Madrid to present the new MANS fall-winter 2024/2025 collection. Titled 'Womenswear & Manswear Collection', the collection is inspired by the bucolic English countryside, where the designer invites the public to immerse themselves in timeless elegance and modern sophistication.
Men's garments in the collection reflect an English dandy style due to the fabrics: wools, tartans, houndstooth and lime microcorduroy, as well as printed or plain cloths and silks, which can be seen in the double-breasted jackets that widen up with infinite lapels, and in garments that play with trompe l'oeil creating the sensation that the models are wearing two jackets in one. Tailoring that coexists with shirts presented in white, light blue, yellow, green and burgundy tones, recalling the style of Diana of Wales.
Among the feminine garments, skirts stand out as fetish garments, which take different lengths, from midi to ankle length. Likewise, dresses appear in various patterns, some with a handkerchief effect, made of silk and with small ruffles and others more volatile, without adjusting to the body. Puffed sleeves on jackets and hand-made micro-pleats stand out as ornamental elements, reminiscent of the most kitsch era in the United Kingdom.
With this countryside collection, MANS consolidates its feminine fashion proposal within its collections, which combines with the origins of the menswear brand.
