Fashion brand SANKUANZ presented the Fall Winter 2023.24 Womenswear and Menswear Collection with a show held on January 21st, during the recently finished Paris Fashion Week. The collection continues an in-depth exploration into the integration of street style in high fashion. The silhouette of the Tibetan robe from last season has evolved, now with sleeves that blend into pleats, creating a balance between traditional oriental style and street fashion.
FALL WINTER 2023.24 COLLECTIONS
A vicious Black Widow –both victim and executioner– clutches a sharp blade for self defense and cold-blood murder. They are no stranger to violent tendencies. This obsession with danger and thirst for blood is the inspiration for this season.
A whole new design is introduced with no neckline and an overly-inclined shoulder-line, forming a radial shape at the back, revealing the unique charm of oriental shapes. High-shoulder suits convey power, while graffiti prints interpret the collision and fusion of high fashion and street culture as they exist in the same universe. Vintage fur invokes an ominous feeling, as if danger is lurking underneath the luxuriant outerwear. The palette of this season consists of browns, tortoiseshell colors and other dark shades that bring about a sense of nostalgia, as this collection reinvents the style of 70-80s with a modern design. The dagger, a signature emblem of SANKUANZ, is given an upgrade in the leatherware of this collection. It is used at the toecap and the heel of pointed cowboy boots and the end of belts, symbolizing a killer’s lethal weapon in disguise. These details create a sinister atmosphere when accompanied by the crimson clutch, a metaphor for bloodshed. The chunky retro sneakers, a statement item of SANKUANZ, are featured in new colors, bringing an unruly street style with their oversized volume. – from Sankuanz
