COS’ Autumn-Winter 2023 seasonal campaign pays homage to the brand’s design roots, introducing a fresh approach to timeless style, led by an uncompromised dedication to craftsmanship, fine detail, and modern tailoring. The brand returned to this September’s New York Fashion Week to present its Autumn Winter 2023 collection: an exploration of contrasts, where tradition meets innovation in an evolution of the COS archetypes.
The season’s campaign collection empowers the wearer; strong shoulders create a bold visual statement, while versatile RWS wool maxi-length coats are worn oversized. Creative layering enhances shapes and proportions – showcasing innovative and elevated tailored fits, kick flares, and slouched menswear trousers offer a relaxed take on suiting. Further reinventing classic tailoring, methods of deconstruction and reconstruction form unexpected silhouettes; low-waisted trousers with turn-over waistbands meet cropped, raw-edged jackets, while traditionally formal pinstripes drape asymmetrically, creating modern proportions.
Colours are harmoniously combined as nature continues to inspire the season’s palette; soothing neutrals in natural oatmeal complement tones of camel and brown alongside bespoke floral designs. Exploring contrasts, smooth finishes meet textured knitwear, while intricate embroidery and quilting techniques enhance unique leather accessories.
