Patta Fall/Winter 2016 Lookbook

Posted on by bythelevel

 

 Amsterdam mainstay Patta have unveiled their latest collection as we head in to colder seasons with a simplistic studio lookbook, highlighting a range of looks and styles for Fall/Winter 2016.

 The collection, like many others from the Dutch brand, is considered and diverse, offering up a mix of sportswear inspired pieces, classic streetwear staples and outerwear references in the heavier pieces. Most of the collection sticks to a subdued, Autumnal colour palette, with more vibrant hits in places on the retro inspired tees and headwear. Aside from a strong selection of graphic pieces, which make clever use of colour blocking throughout, the outerwear takes centre stage in the release with oversized bombers and elongated parkers the stand outs, while the burnt orange fleece shirt is our pick from the collection. Sweaters, polo shirts, matching tracksuit and a selection of headwear round off the release, all sticking to similar colour palettes and minimal detailing, utilising fan favourite designs from previous releases. 

The Patta Fall/Winter 2016 collection will launch in store and online at Patta this Friday, August 19th and will also be available at official Patta retailers worldwide in the coming weeks. For now, check the lookbook shot by Menno Kok and mark out your most wanted.

Stussy x Patta AW15 Collection

Posted on by bythelevel

 

Streetwear institution Stussy comes together with Amsterdam mainstay Patta this season for the pairs first fully fledged collection.

Both brands share similar values and a similar approach, though Stussy's heritage and geographical location means that it may of had a larger impact on the global streetwear scene over the years, Patta's role in todays modern movement can't be overlooked, and both can be credited with having a hand in shaping the industry as we know it. Their interests in music, art and classic sportswear, as well as their shared spirit of independence has allowed the relationship to grow strong over the years, leading to a few collaborative capsule collections along the way. As Stussy continue to celebrate 35 years of prominence in streetwear and Patta continue to build on their already hugely influential presence on the global market, the timing seemed right for the pair to put their heads together on an expanded collaborative release.

The collection is largely graphic led and keeps things fairly simple throughout, drawing inspiration from 90's sportswear and applying retro colour treatments to their designs. A majority of the collection consists of bold dual branded staples such as tees, long sleeves and sweaters, but you will also find more considered fleece sweaters and functional outerwear, again referencing 90's athletic themes. Something that both Patta and Stussy do well in their main line collections and collaborative ventures is doing the simple things well, and whenever they do look to expand in to more experimental pieces, each piece has reason behind it. Rounding off the collection is a selection of knitwear, a tracksuit and also some patch work denim, inspired by past era trends in the Netherlands that Patta has always stayed true to and contributed to it's recent resurgence through ventures such as this.

It's great to see both brands give the fans what they want, not over complicating things and putting together a well rounded collection. The Stussy x Patta Autumn/Winter release will be available to purchase at Stussy's New York location and Patta's Amsterdam store on December the 12th, and will be available at Patta retailers, Stussy Chapters and stussy.com from the 18th of December.

This year sees the tour kick off in Stockholm, with the route passing through Patta’s native Amsterdam before finishing in Las Vegas, with notable participants including Lewis Hamilton, Tony Hawk and Bun B amongst many others.

Combining Patta’s creative approach and elements of Gumball’s iconic logo imagery, the collection consists of dual branded t-shirt, long-sleeve and black nylon coach jacket. Both the tee and long sleeve features Patta’s popular script design on the chest, with the Gumball 3000 logo applied to the back of the tee, while the long sleeve features “Against All Odds” as a back print with “Gumball” printed on the arms. Rounding off the release is a sportswear inspired coach jacket, constructed from a nylon taslan fabric and bearing an embroidered “3000” across the back.
