Copenhagen-based fashion label Samsøe Samsøe introduces it's new Chasing the Sun collection full of menswear designs for the Spring/Summer 2022 season. The brand showcases itself following through a journey of time-lapse that takes them back to the era of the 70s and 80s for inspiration.
This results in a retro-themed design capsule that is decorated with modern prints, nostalgic patterning, and new jacquards. The nod to the 70s is referenced through the playful designs of the shirts, overshirts, wide-legged pants, knitted options, and much more. There are also sun-bleached tones that add to the same feeling followed by tailored suits and structured twill for the formal vibe that was prominent during the era of the 80s.
