Jan Boelo: THE ILLUSION OF THE HEART FALL / WINTER 2014 – 2015 Collection

Jan Boelo Catwalk show at the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Amsterdam:

WOMEN
The typical JANBOELO woman is not always easy to fathom, yet she always attracts attention. All eyes are on her as soon as she enters the room, but only the lucky ones know who she really is. Leather is the foundation from which the designer works, as in every JANBOELO collection. Pants, shirts, skirts and dresses are combined with garments of viscose, wool and cotton. The silhouette is slim in combination with oversized; think of tight skirts with a maxi shirt and a huge parka. By wearing different, various layers and fabrics JANBOELO plays with the body, creating new body shapes this winter.

MEN
The JANBOELO man is sexy as hell, this time with a more bohemian feel to it than we are used to though. Here high quality leather also has a key role in jackets, shirts and pants. A cotton shirt is worn casually with tight leather pants and a peacoat with gold crocodile print over it. Leather is also found as a detail on classic wool suits or as the must have accessory this winter, oversized leather scarfs soft as butter.

ABOUT JAN BOELO
