Maryam Nassir Zadeh’s autumn collection reminds you that the way you wear clothes is as important as what you wear. This season’s lookbook filmed in a Paris apartment is a masterclass that goes against conventions, exciting eyes. Check out how a belt a one-inch above the waistline creates unexpected proportions? Or are leggings paired with Lucite wedges so wrong, are they right?
Nassir Zadeh has little difference between men and women. Both genders tucked their pants into their boots, and they both took photos in delicious bubblegum pink leather shirt jackets. In one photo, a male model tied a Coms-shaped two-color belt to a pair of luxurious pleated pants. This is unexpected and effective and can be found on basic clothing.
In Nassir Zadeh’s world, spontaneity is encouraged and wearable – the edge of the suede is a skirt, just a narrow band that you can wrap around the neck, wrist or the top of another outfit.
One of the basic works of the series is the taller bust top, Saint Laurent Rive Gauche of the 70s. There is an orange-decorated shell disc that looks like a Necco wafer. By creating off-shoulder necklines and pairing with animal printed boots, a layered dress transcends the bohemian style.
“I think there is a vibrant and exciting celebration and inspirational element in autumn,” said Nassir Zadeh, who explained that the season pays tribute to her beloved grandmother in many ways. The designer is actually living with Nana’s memories and revisiting her own tracks. “The mix is so fun but familiar,” she said, a little out of place.
The kind silk that Princess Diana preferred in the 1980s. These are used for ruffled skirts and Juliet sleeve tops. The composition of some photos also vaguely recalls the work of Sheila Metzner of that era, but MNZ magic is to avoid classification, and better let the spirit run freely.
