The Bode Spring/Summer 2021 collection takes place in a sunny backdrop, showcasing the latest designs for the warmer seasons around the corner. The fashion label explores sustainable approaches and it translates through the construction of the apparel designs.
The seasonal capsule ranges from Italian footwear designs down to summer shirts made in India. The upcycled designs stay true to the brand's sustainable ethos and it is fueled by vintage vintage horse blankets, wool blankets, quilts, linen coasters, and other scraps from fabric that went unused. The silhouettes are rather boxy for layering and aesthetics that are reminiscent of workwear. The rest of the capsule includes work jackets, over shirts, tees, large trousers, and relaxed cardigans for a retro Americana feel.
