Espectáculo de BraveGentleman en la NYFW
Semana de la Moda de Nueva York – El fundador de Brave GentleMan, Joshua Katcher, presentó la colección Otoño 2019 de la marca de trajes y accesorios de lujo hechos a medida con materiales sostenibles aptos para veganos. El anfitrión de la velada fue el actor Alan Cumming, que llegó vestido con el próximo traje de bambú de chambray burdeos de Brave GentleMan con cuadros azul claro y un par de The Weekend Sneaker, unas zapatillas de vestir minimalistas de color tostado que acentuaban la comodidad del traje.
La colección es la primera de trajes veganos de lujo confeccionada con tejido de traje de bambú italiano, de tacto suave y suntuoso. Fabricada en Nueva York en el Brooklyn Fashion + Design Accelerator, centrado en la sostenibilidad y la tecnología, la colección de Katcher era un homenaje al traje clásico, con prendas que abarcaban los tradicionales azul marino oscuro, marrón intenso, azul intenso, negro y gris marengo. Los trajes de tres piezas con pantalones finos y chaquetas de dos botones y solapa de muesca iban acompañados de chalecos y corbatas a juego. Un esmoquin informal con cuello chal confeccionado en satén de poliéster reciclado, una chaqueta estilo bombardero y una americana inspirada en las chaquetas de motociclista con pantalones de pernera ancha y pliegues de buen gusto dieron un nuevo aire a los trajes.
La presentación, celebrada en el Mercer Hotel del Soho, fue un acontecimiento íntimo para los sentidos, con música en directo del meditativo Eüsh, de pop barroco, y de la hipnótica cantautora Anni Rossi, macarons franceses veganos de Sweet Maresa en discretas salpicaduras de color masculino, y vino y burbujas de Whitecliff Vineyards de New Paltz, Nueva York.
Los trajes, zapatos y accesorios sostenibles y aptos para veganos están disponibles actualmente en bravegentleman.com.
