“This collection is about simplicity and purity, about less meaning more - about intimacy, about reducing to an essence, about finding a freedom and invention in that. It is a decision, a choice, not to minimize but to focus, to expand possibilities. Everything you see is created with a single yarn.” This is how Creative Director Pieter Mulier described his new collection for Alaïa, the Summer-Fall 2024 collection. He had been developing the fabrics of this collection for over a year and they are all based around a merino wool yarn, reinvented over and again.
Based on the circle - the curves of women, and circles of friends, of chosen family, the collection sheds light on this idea essential to the essence of Alaïa that was always there with Azzedine, like a heartbeat, and it remains. Aiming to make it less about clothes and more about life and being together, the Designer collaborated with the ateliers, and the result speaks for itself.
