# Ethnically Urban Runways The UMASAN Spring/Summer 2015 Collection is Nomadic By Jana Pijak | Published 2014-07-10 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/umasan-springsummer-2015 References: [fuckingyoung.es](http://fuckingyoung.es/umasan-springsummer-2015/) & [umasan-world](http://www.umasan-world.com/) Designers Anja and Sandra Umann presented their UMASAN Spring/Summer 2015 collection during [Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Berlin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amg-parfum). The menswear line took on a nomadic inspiration and presented the label's fans with a range of layered and dynamically draped pieces. Standouts from the runway show included the label's sculptural wool and cotton staples that were styled with removable hood accessories and [practical carryalls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/at-the-edge-of-time). The presentation's theme was nomadic and ethnically inspired as models took to the stage in culturally-infused silhouettes and tribal-themed makeup looks. The guys resembled [urban nomads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/topologie-1) in outerwear pieces that were light-weight and loose-fitting. These menswear pieces were paired with red, linear face paint that was an understated translation of traditional cosmetics, often worn by native tribe members. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.9/10 - Popularity: 77% | Activity: 33% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% 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) > [Fashion for Men](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashionformen) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Nomadic Fashion:** Incorporate cultural and ethnically-inspired elements into fashion design, such as practical carryalls and tribal-themed makeup. - **Layered Sculptural Staples:** Create innovative and practical design pieces that are easily adaptable and can be combined and layered in different ways. - **Urban Nomads:** Design comfortable, versatile and loose-fitting outerwear pieces that reflect a modern-day nomadic lifestyle. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion:** Experiment with different cultural elements, textures, and styles to create layered and versatile fashion designs. - **Beauty:** Incorporate traditional tribal makeup techniques into modern beauty routines, creating unique and culturally-inspired looks. - **Textile:** Develop innovative and sculptural textile techniques that can be used in the creation of practical and versatile fashion and utility designs. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Experimental Fall Wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir.md) - [Desert-Inspired Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rudsak-ss25-collection.md) - [Middle Eastern-Inspired Fall Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/act-ii-collection.md) - [Workwear-Inspired Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fendi-springsummer-2024.md) - [Beach-Inspired Spring Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-kind-of-guise-3.md) - [Spring-Centric Outerwear Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/namacheko-1.md) - [Minimalist Gallery Runways](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saint-laurent-springsummer-2024.md) - [Summer-Centric Lifestyle Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uniqlo-u-4.md) - [Versatile Summer-Ready Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marmot-1.md)
