Vladimir Karaleev presented his Spring/Summer 2015 collection during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Berlin. Inspired by modern art and architecture, the menswear line boasted structured silhouettes and linear shape graphics.
Channeling rebellious art students, models took to the runway stage in a wardrobe of oversized statement sweaters, sleeveless waistcoats and vests that were finished with raw hemlines. Moreover, the guys pulled off retro rocker shades that featured two-toned lensed and donned punk-inspired haircuts that made a bold statement.
The Vladimir Karaleev Spring/Summer 2015 collection embodies a feeling of modern sophistication. While it explores rebellious punk themes, the collection references these inspirations subtly. This menswear line embodies minimalism and bare elegance without relying too much on ornamentation and added adornments.
