Lucas Ossendrijver creates a new collection under the overarching THEORY Project which was made alongside Francesco Fucci. Speaking about the new project, Ossendrijver stated that “In New York, I always feel a sense of purpose. People are always going places, and their attitude and the way they dress reflect this. The styling is a mix that feels accidental and blurs categories. It’s the unexpected element that inspires me.”
From this, the new range was inspired by city living and functionality in an urban environment through wearables. The blend of hues that make up the color palette features hints of burgundy tobacco, sky blue, ultraviolet, heather grey, and more -- many of this capture a contemporary design language.
