The Gentlemen’s Daily: The Best of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week…Tim Coppens Fall 2014 Menswear Collection

The Best of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week: Tim Coppens Fall 2014 Menswear Collection By Tyrus Townsend

As one of the finalists for the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund, Tim Coppens proved to be a force and that extraordinary work is visible in his Fall 2014 Menswear Collection. Influenced by nature, more specifically mountains, Coppens experimented with a more classic and linear approach to fabrics: incorporating plaids into outerwear, ivory duffle coats with rugged edges, leather clad aviator jackets and oversized trousers.

Never straying too far from his usual activewear theme, the designer created blazers with bomber collars, rich knitwear (see black sweatshirts and enormous scarves) and he even included a surprise capsule collection of womenswear in an almost identical formula. Whether black, gray, taupe or ivory, this offering s the future of luxury activewear!
