MFW17 – Arthur Arbesser Fashion Show –
Fall/Winter 2017/2018. “Wings of Desire”, the movie directed
by Wim Wender’s was the starting point for Arthur Arbesser’s Fall/ Winter
2017/18 collection. The modern fairy-tale has provided the designer with various
ideas and thoughts for the new season; a rich and vivid imaginary seeking to
link romance and purity and to continuously contrast it with the cruelty of our
surrounding reality.

Arbesser
Arbesser’s
clothes aim to combine poetic and colorful elements with the rigor of the
uniform, yet enhanced by a bold choice of colors.

As being part of the Swarovski Collective
2017, Arbesser had unlimited access to the rich world of crystal, hence, the
classic pinstripe has been substituted with fine crystal lines.
The knitwear, one of Arbesser’s passions,
shows delicate workmanship like intarsia knit, transparent inserts or geometric
jacquards in precious yarns.

“The hairstyle was inspired by the film
Wings of Desire, angels falling in love with humans, set in Berlin in
1987. The hair is classic ‘finger wave’
with a modern twist.”

Special attention was given to fabrics,
graphics and jacquards, which were exclusively created by the designer aiming
to infuse natural fibers with a futuristic look: the Tuscan Casentino or
Austrian Loden were consciously mixed with technical, metallic or transparent
fabrics and padded protective layers.

The Shoes
The shoes emerged from the
collaboration between Arthur Arbesser and Vibram, and are a reinterpretation of
their FiveFingers concept. Using high tech materials, stretch calf leather and
3D knitting, are in themselves a small avant-garde capsule collection.
