The Bally menswear collection for Fall/Winter 2015 is an homage to cinematic cult classic The Royal Tenenbaums. Wes Anderson’s popular film stars Owen and Luke Wilson, Gwyneth Paltrow and Bill Murray and is known for its eccentric wardrobe styling.
Inspired by the 70s, the film's costume design blends together athletic and luxurious design details. This visual aesthetic is mimicked in the Bally menswear catalog for Fall/Winter 2015. The lookbook highlights ostrich leather coats, lengthy fur jackets and retro luggage accessories that work together flawlessly.
In addition to its luxurious leather goods and outerwear staples, this menswear range also highlights wool hats and linen suiting. Furthermore, the collection revives colored cashmere knits and gingham prints that are a throwback to the 70s.
