Astrid Andersen Spring/Summer 2017
by Claudia Rose Walder
























This season Astrid Andersen took a leap forward by introducing a womenswear line to her hotly coveted menswear label. Expanding due to demand, the designer continues to act progressively, taking steps to eradicate outdated modes of business and terminology with the fashion industry.
Using the concept of “time”, Andersen delivered a versatile collection, transitional between country, season and class. Casual luxury is descriptive of the first the shape, and then the finish. Garments literally drip in gold with the addition of extended tassels in the finest gold thread and traditional wooden beaded necklaces are bound with thick gold chaining. Heavy logo embellished trousers sit over the finest lace boxers and Nike sliders.
Constantly juxtaposing old materials with new silhouettes and vice versa, this season Andersen introduced conservative knitwear cut with asymmetric proportions, traditional British prints sat against oversized snakeskin markings: the effect was truly soft due to the lightened colour palette of eggshell blue and a myriad of beiges.
The kimono styles and track suit silhouettes remained, with the odd suede bomber jacket to add a bit of cover to the light fabrics.
