Meet the Creative Director Behind Colmar A.G.E.’s Hybrid Ski Wear Capsule

Is skiwear the brand new streetwear? Not but, however the affect of the game on trend has grown past the informal après look supposed for the lodge. Right now it’s the fusion of trend with technical gear that’s choosing up pace, on and off the slopes. Across the identical time that Moncler Genius was launched, the Italian ski put on model Colmar launched Colmar A.G.E. (Superior Garment Exploration). The idea was to ask rising skills to create capsule collections that explored each the model’s now practically 100-year historical past and sustainability. Hood by Air’s Shayne Oliver and White Mountaineering’s Yosuke Aizawa have been visitor designers. Now it’s the flip of Morteza Vaseghi, an Irani-Norwegian artistic director and co-founder, with Elise By Olsen, of Wallet.

Vaseghi’s trend training began at house: His mom learn Vogue and impressed on him the significance of styling; he waxed his sneakers weekly along with his father. “He taught me in case you care for your garments, they care for you.”
