Federico Cina, an Italian fashion designer, recently debuted his Fall/Winter 2018 collection, along with a minimalist lookbook that shows how the obscure garments can be styled together.For the editorial, Cina employed the talents of stylist Simone Botte, and photographers Gabriele Rosati and Luca Notarfrancesco. All of the images that comprise the lookbook feature a single male model, named Simone Pedini, ensuring that a very specific uniformity is maintained throughout.
With most of the garments in the collection being greatly oversized, Pedini swims in them, however the boxy silhouettes help to balance out the designs by offering a rigid structure. Some of the most unique garments that are presented in the collection include a red jacket that's covered in a light mesh-like material, a striped trench coat that goes far past the knees, and another jacket that has greatly extended shoulders.
