Fashion house Zara introduces its Origins Archetype Drop II, reimagining essential wardrobe pieces by blending timeless silhouettes with contemporary craftsmanship. This collection refines staples into modern interpretations, focusing on quality, precision, and exceptional materials. The campaign stars models George Okeny, River Dittrich, and Rudy Verwe captured by fashion photographer Mario Sorrenti. In charge of styling was Alastair McKimm, with casting direction by Samuel Ellis. Beauty is work of hair stylist Bob Recine, and makeup artist Frank B.
Key outerwear items include the double-breasted wool coat and the cashmere turtleneck sweater. Made from Italian wool, the coat offers a relaxed fit with a notched lapel collar, interior pocket, and central back vent for added practicality. The cashmere sweater, with its ribbed trim and high collar, combines warmth and understated elegance, demonstrating Zara’s focus on materials that offer both luxury and durability.
The collection extends into textured outerwear with the crackle-effect leather jacket and wool-cashmere bomber. The leather jacket introduces a tactile edge with patch pockets and a button closure, while the bomber blends Italian cashmere and wool, balancing softness and structure. These designs provide contemporary updates to familiar pieces, ensuring versatility without compromising craftsmanship. Another highlight, the suede leather jacket, merges traditional tailoring with a casual edge, making it a reliable option across different occasions.
Everyday essentials like the straight-leg ankle jeans and plaid flannel shirt round out the collection, emphasizing comfort and versatility. The jeans, with a washed finish, offer a structured silhouette that softens over time, while the flannel shirt features side vents, buttoned cuffs, and practical chest pockets. Accessories, such as the embossed leather belt, add subtle refinement. Featuring a metal tip detail and tonal buckle, the belt complements the wardrobe’s overall cohesion.
Zara Origins Archetype Drop II continues Zara’s mission of redefining wardrobe staples with a modern edge. From cashmere sweaters to heavyweight cotton sweatshirts, the collection prioritizes wearability without sacrificing sophistication. With a focus on progressive design and high manufacturing standards, Zara offers elevated essentials that cater to both function and fashion.
