Danish fashion designer Christian Juul Nielen introduces the new menswear imprint known as AKNVAS and the collection that just dropped readies for the Fall/Winter 2022 season. The new range spotlights plush knitwear for the colder seasons with a cozy design language. It takes shapes and textures into account, translating that through bold color palettes and chunky woven designs.
The color palette includes green, orange, and red -- all of which are woven together to create silhouettes such as long-sleeved crewneck sweaters. Other items that make up the seasonal capsule include buttoned tops, single-pleat pants, and overcoats, along with padded grosgrain knits and leather shorts. The brand shares that the collection is "designed to move seamlessly from desk to dinner, with a focus on drape, flattering silhouettes, innovative knits and an elevated palette."
