# Technical Avant-Garde Unisex Apparel ACRONYM works with sacai on the Bonding Collection for SS22 By Amy Duong | Published 2022-02-13 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bonding-collection References: [hypebeast](http://hypebeast.com/2022/2/sacai-acronym-collab-ss22-release-info) Fashion label [sacai](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/high-fashion-collaboration) announces that it is working in collaboration with ACRONYM on the new Bonding collection that celebrates both of the contributing brands' strengths. The ethos behind the collection is to shine a light on the meaning of unity and spotlight sacai's signature technique at blending different materials together seamlessly. Errolson Hugh states, “Having known Chitose, and of course sacai, for many years, this collaboration is the ideal kind of cross-pollination,” said Hugh. “And as I believe you can see from the results, it’s a true blend of the philosophies of both brands, where the sum is greater than the parts.” The silhouettes include parkas, bomber jackets, short, cropped jackets, a woven skirt, and much more.
