The collection, called "Animal Instinct", saw
Chief Creative Officer Riccardo Tisci reinvent the label's
trademark piece, adding short capes, turning lapels into long
scarves, cutting out slits as well as making the coats
collarless or bottomless.
In a video shared online, models, some with stuck-on drooping
animal ears, also wore dresses and shirts in colourful abstract
geometric and camouflage-like prints.
They walked in different spaces - including a rave and a room
padded with trench coats - instead of the traditional catwalk.
"To me, this presentation really represents the freedom of our
imaginations: how we dream to come alive," Tisci said in a
statement.
"I wanted to move through a series of immersive spaces, each of
them unique and unexpected in their sound, texture and
experience. It’s that idea of flicking between the endless
realities and fantasies we have at our fingertips each day."
The designer dedicated the show to his mother, who died last
month, "and to a journey full of new possibilities".
Tisci, who has targeted a younger clientele with more youthful
sporty looks, added oversized hoodies to the spring/summer 2022
line and layered his casualwear designs with sheer and mesh
tops.
There were also oversized waistcoats, plenty of long swaying
fringes as well as tight-fitting tops and leggings with
cut-outs. One model wore a sparkling silver bodysuit.
For his colour palette, Tisci mainly used beige, fawn, brown,
black and white with dabs of pink, red, orange and yellow for
the geometric print designs.
Accessories included tall caps and chokers.
