SUBFUSCO

Inspired by the earth’s four elements – Earth, Air, Fire and Water - Subfusco’s S/S 12 ‘Elements’ collection delivers yet another range that draws upon human existence and how we, human beings, have come to exist on this planet. Designer Joshua Scacheri drew inspiration from the colours of the 4 elements when beginning his creative process, resulting in a vibrant and visually stimulating colour palette. Joshua created a stunning galactic inspired print, which references his initial inspiration, and is used extensively throughout the collection. Incorporated into amazing bursts of colour and digital texture, the print has been further developed by Subfusco and is digitally printed onto a mesh fabric. This mesh has been used in tailored jackets and shorts in both men’s and women’s wear – resulting in suiting perfect for the Australian Summer. “We worked on some new processes this season, and found the answer to the question; how can we comfortably wear jackets and pants in Summer?” In previous seasons Subfusco have used linen textiles in suiting and tailored items; however this new fabrication and direction for the Subfusco label ensures these pieces are given a fresher update. Joshua has successfully re-worked a full mesh blazer from last summer – an item which sold out within 2 weeks – into an entirely new garment, which we predict will have an even stronger covetable status. The Subfusco production team worked closely with Joshua to consider how traditional tailoring can be transformed into thoroughly modern garments, yet still keep a classic and polished aesthetic. The result is jackets with mesh backs, cut-out panelling for the wearer’s breathability and full mesh suits. Rounding out the ‘Elements’ collection are an array of must-have separates in cool blues, fresh whites and organic brown, making the new Subfusco collection essentials for your Summer wardrobe.
