Dirk Bikkembergs presented his Spring/Summer 2015 collection during Milan Fashion Week and stunned fashion fans with an athletic collection that was inspired by the triathlon – swimming, cycling and running.
'This collection's visual aesthetic borrowed from sports attire and focused on enhancing the male body with figure-hugging shapes, performance materials and bright colours.'
Standouts from the Dirk Bikkemberg Spring/Summer 2015 line were scuba pants, cycling-inspired shorts and swimcap accessories that were as urban as they were athletic. The designer's latest showing proved modern and embraced the fashion world's current athletic obsession in a non-traditional way.
While many designers have created jersey-inspired collections in the last few seasons, Dirk remixes this sporty inspiration in an unexpected way and opts to present his fans with fresh performance-wear pieces.
