Ancient Fabric-Themed Fall Fashion

Samuel Zelig's Collection 1 Prepares for Fall/Winter 2020

— November 5, 2020 — Fashion
Samuel Zelig presents the brand's first-ever Fall/Winter 2020 collection and it is very simply entitled 'Collection 1.' The brand was founded by both Jonathan Levite and Dylan Lubell, starting off in Los Angeles. The label focuses on ancient fabrics and the intricacies of the material in creating clothing.

This includes patina from wear over time, uneven coloration from sun exposure, boro repair patchwork, and more. The inspiration behind the brand is global, drawing influences from American, French, and Japanese workwear. The seasonal capsule uses vintage quilts from 1870 to 1970, transforming it into outerwear designs that are informed by hand-embroidered labeling, oil wash completion, antique Riri brass zippers, heavyweight twill tape bindings, and much more.
