Streetwear imprint A-COLD-WALL* introduces a [new outerwear option](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/convertible-padded-coat) in the form of the 'Contrast Panel' coat inspired by asymmetrical Mondrian aesthetics. It taps Samuel Ross' [geometric color-blocking](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hm-x-glenn-martens) designs for the Spring/Summer 2019 season and the coat arrives in a formal structure.

It boasts a [single-breasted silhouette](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/galilee-by-sea) with contrasting hits of yellow, red, and black panels throughout the front. The neckline features a round slashed swoop cut with the spotlight hitting the geometric cut-outs. The back of the arms showcase oval-shaped holes and the back of the piece has a semi-circle cut out. Notable, the left arm features a zippered sleeve in order to give the entire sleeve a pyramid look to correlate to the overarching structural look.
