Most of the collection perfectly captures long-length styles with its blazers, jackets and sweaters. A neutral black color palette is utilized, making for versatile, wardrobe-friendly looks. Esther Perbandt is able to create interesting looks using a deconstructed tailored silhouette that maximizes comfort. The brand takes advantage of contrasting styles including a men's slim-fit blazer that drapes into a unique, uneven cut. Also, a women's wrap-draped blazer cinched and belted at the waist is paired with loose-fitting trousers. The rest of the collection includes [oversized parkas, straight fit long coats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/transhabit-collection) and [masculine women's pantsuits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sujitha-shivajothi). The outerwear jackets are also outfitted with exaggerated window-pane designs. Esther Perbandt wanted to create a collection that encouraged soul and individuality while using classic silhouettes combined with modern styles. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 78% | Activity: 70% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Minimalist Aesthetic:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in creating fashion lines that focus on clean and minimal designs with avant-garde elements. - **Long-length Styles:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in designing outerwear collections that emphasize long-length styles for a unique and fashion-forward look. - **Deconstructed Tailored Silhouette:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in developing clothing lines that combine deconstruction and tailoring techniques to create comfortable and stylish pieces. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion and Apparel:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the fashion and apparel industry by incorporating avant-garde elements and creating versatile, wardrobe-friendly looks. - **Outerwear:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the outerwear industry by focusing on oversized parkas, long coats, and jackets with exaggerated window-pane designs. - **Fashion Design:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the field of fashion design by experimenting with contrasting styles and creating unique combinations of men's and women's clothing. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Experimental Fall Wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir.md) - [Statement-Making Fall Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025.md) - [Seasonal Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/siegelman-stable-1.md) - [Minimally Elegant Fall-Ready Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-nicholson-1.md) - [Refined Utility Tailoring](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apresse-2026.md) - [Versatile Sculptural Outerwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/transhabit-collection.md) - [Timeless Winter Outwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fall-and-winter-line.md) - [Futuristic Fall-Centric Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/origins-collection.md) - [Genderless Outerwear Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sujitha-shivajothi.md)
