AP – Coperni, the Parisian brand designed by Sebastien Meyer and Arnaud Vaillant established in 2013, has grown a stratospheric digital following in recent seasons for its futuristic, often conceptual storytelling.
This fall welcomed the luminous Air Swipe bag, a small, incredibly light, space-age-looking item borrowed from NASA scientific technology made from 99 per cent air and one per cent glass. The brand says that this handbag is the biggest object ever made from this nanomaterial, used by NASA to capture stardust because it can withstand extreme heat.
In the styles, cutouts, slashes and banding made formal and textural statements in a rather play-it-safe collection. A grey knit sweater with criss cross pattern had sported descending strips ressembling a medieval dress, above sheeny metallic tights.
Elsewhere, striped black cummerbunds, fringed cap sleeves, spiked starfish heels and furry kimono gowns provided the whimsy.
