The Debut Release from A-COLD-WALL*'s Sister Label POLYTHENE OPTICS* Includes a Places+Faces Collab
The latest from LVMH Prize semi-finalist Samuel Ross.
With designer Samuel Ross at the helm, A-COLD-WALL* has been a rising star in the world of high fashion ever since the brand was named as a semifinalist for the LVMH Prize 2018. Instead of a typical runway show, Ross presented a jaw-dropping presentation at the recent London Fashion Week Men’s that was filled with plenty of theatrical flair. Cementing his status within the upper echelons of fashion and design, the brand’s future looks glaringly bright.
Riding on the success of his label, Ross now debuts the first collection for ACW*’s sister label, POLYTHENE OPTICS*. Having teased a Fall/Winter 2018 debut as early as November 2017, we finally get a comprehensive look at the line’s forthcoming range. Aligned with the industrial aesthetic that has become synonymous with Ross’ designs, the new offering also hone similar ideals in its bold graphics. The new program is comprised of plenty of cozy essentials such as long-sleeves, hoodies, T-shirts, a jumpsuit and a cross-over bag. Included in the drop is also a collaboration with Places+Faces, which appears prominently in several dual-branded pieces.
You can view the full collection in the gallery above, and can shop pieces now at the POLYTHENE OPTICS* web store.
