Telfar Clemens is a high-end fashion designer from New York City and his eponymous label — Telfar, recently debuted its ready-to-wear offerings for the Spring/Summer 2020 season. Adorning the catwalk at the prestigious Paris Fashion Week, the collection seems to dabble in a variety of categories, including militant wear, cowboy aesthetics, workwear essentials, streetwear, sportswear, and so on. This made for an eclectic experience.
For each outfit, Telfar Clemens embraces the concept of deconstruction and curates attention-captivating and boundary-pushing apparel. A connecting theme of the Spring/Summer 2020 presentation is that the garments collectively embrace neutral tones. In addition, the military-themed clothing provides a nice twist to the collection as a whole, accenting the edginess and tactile presence of the offerings.
