PORTS 1961 MENSWEAR SPRING/SUMMER 2017

Titled Less Hate, More Love, Milan Vukmirovic reinterprets the male wardrobe with an excess of gentleness,for Ports 1961 SS17 collection.

He adds romanticism to military wear, giving a new twist to their decorations, adding flowers and re-embroidering everything with poetry.

 Uniforms have always occupied a privileged place in the fashion pantheon. With Milan Vukmirovic’s fourth collection for Ports 1961, the French artistic director does not restrict himself to lines of perfectly conceived army uniforms, but transfers their stripes, insignia, frogs and ceremonial braiding on to jerkins, shirts, sweatshirts and shorts.

 This military influence, playfully redefined, is boosted by references to classic sportswear.
As part of the collection, a partnership has been signed with Everlast, creating a capsule collection that is distributed exclusively by Ports 1961. The iconic logo of the American brand is reworked in large dimensions on a selection of sports pieces with a new, more pronounced fashion accent.


 In parallel with this, abstract flower emblems are also key, appearing layered on raw edge poplin over shirt fronts, in tone-on-tone embroidery on lengthened bomber jackets, and screen-printed to break up the graphic rhythm on sweaters and marinière T-shirts.

 The accessories are also part of the celebration. Backpacks and sneakers continue the textile motifs of the ready-to-wear. A new line of objects and small leather goods in smooth leather has the golden signature #LOVE, the hashtag for Spring-Summer 2017, which is also found on the garments, updating the #followme which has characterized previous seasons.
