The Asger Juel Larsen Fall/Winter 2015 collection graced the runway stage at Copenhagen Fashion Week. The menswear range drew inspiration from the 90s and featured an abundance of fur-clad pieces that were an homage to the decade's flamboyant rap stars.
Referencing stars like Puff Daddy, Mase and Busta Rhymes, pieces from the Asger Juel Larsen Fall/Winter 2015 range resemble costumes from a David LaChapelle music video. The runway presentation's most memorable looks were its oversized fur sweaters and its fur-accented jackets that were displayed in black, brown and punchy coral hues.
In addition to its fur-accented garments, this menswear collection also highlighted all-over gold suits that were a fresh translation of uniformed and industrial attire. Embracing nostalgia, this collection is a fresh take on the forgotten styles of the 90s.
