Fashion brand ACNE STUDIOS presented the Spring Summer 2023 Menswear Collection, with a lookbook, on June 24th, during the recently finished Paris Fashion Week. The collection celebrates the joy of dressing up with a hint of subversion, skewing traditional formal dress codes for a modern, idiosyncratic take on occasionwear. For this season, Johansson plays with proportions, oversized shoulders and flared, floor-skimming hems meet micro-shorts and cropped, second-skin knits.
SPRING SUMMER 2023 COLLECTIONS
I’ve been reflecting a lot on my own wedding and the ones I’ve been to lately. I’m interested in the whole performance of it, the joyfulness, the dressing up, the kitschy-ness. In a sense, it’s one of the most serious days of your life, but it’s also fun and ridiculous. As I began researching and unpicking the proposition of occasionwear, different characters appeared. When you’re going to a wedding, you take the best things from your wardrobe or you buy, build, or make something new. The parts I like have this kitsch, spontaneous feeling. – Jonny Johansson, Creative Director
