Berlin-based label “BRACHMANN Post- Classical Menswear” presented its SS16 collection as the kick off of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Berlin,
as the first show. As location, the runway at Stage in Auguststrasse 68
in the heart of Berlin, was chosen. The collection is made for the
cosmopolitan gentleman who prefers to dress high- class, albeit with
innovative elements. Therefore its character was highly wearable, yet
exclusive with just the right amount of each. It can be worn at any age
and for any occassion. It does not scream for attention, though
impresses with its very special detail- awareness.
Due to its vivid mix and match with
fabrics and cuts, the classical menswear is lifted to another level. Or,
to say it more precisely, it appears as post- classical menswear.
Sharp, timeless, innovative. Absolutely alluring!
Influences from design principles of architecture are clearly visible in this collection and therefore it is constructed highly compelling. For the coming season, the german menswear label took its inspiration from Martin Eder’s cycle of pictures “Those Bloody Colours“. The artist attended the show. Classical menswear is paired with new structures which gives the collection its refreshing touch and makes the pieces stay in mind. Worth of mentioning is also its very special detail- awareness, for instance asymmetric cuts. But also outfits that give a different impression from the side and back deserve devotion.

The range of fabrics is dominated by
natural garments which contribute to the feelgood factor of the wearer:
linen, cotton, silk- cotton, merino wool are the preferred choice. They
were produced by “Hausammann + Moos 1811″, based in Switzerland. A
perfect addition for any summer wardrobe, as we learnt from various
Southern cultures. It is a collection that is made for the modern
gentleman that dares to vividly mix and match progressive pieces.
The colour palette is dominated by warm
and earthy hues, for instance maroon, sienna, cordovan, dove grey and
teal blue can be noticed in several of the collections’ pieces. It is a
slightly more restrained colour choice, that always stays utterly
wearable and timeless. Interesting is also Barchmanns’ colour
combination which gives the looks its very special flair. Different
tones are often paired in one outfit. Shoe- wise, it stays classy yet
smooth. You may even call it practical, without getting boring. Brogues
from “Gianni Galucci” were often combined with the looks.
