Coperni Continues to Innovate and Elevate for FW24
Space age jackets, organza suiting and the new NASA-developed Air Swipe Bag — it doesn’t get better.
Coperni‘s showcase is always one of the highlights of Paris Fashion Week, and for good reason. From spray-painting dresses onto Bella Hadid to debuting dog robots and CD player bags, there’s always a unique innovation that stands out from the crowd.
This season, Coperni’s Fall/Winter 2024 collection revolved around its newest creation, the new Air Swipe Bag: made up of 99% air, 1% glass and weighing just 33 grams. Crafted from NASA’s nanomaterial silica aerogel, which happens to also be the lightest solid on planet Earth (also used by NASA to capture stardust), the material was developed by Professor Ioannis Michaloudis.
Alongside its future-facing Swipe silhouette, the collection merged classic silhouettes with contemporary trends, pairing sheened tights with trench coat bodysuits, space-age jackets and organza suiting.
