Drôle de Monsieur SS24

For Spring/Summer 2024, the brand takes a trip to the Provence region in France, drawing inspiration from iconic hotel La Colombe d’Or and its strong artistic heritage to build a series of looks that celebrate creativity and craftsmanship. As always, the collection is heavily focused on prints: the standout motif is the playing card pattern, sprawled over cuban shirts, shorts and bathing suits, hinting at long afternoons spent around the playing table in the sun. Paying homage to the art of tableware, t-shirts and sweatshirts are embroidered with plates, wine glasses and fruit, a nod to hedonism and the quintessential French pleasure of long meals.

The signature palette of light colors, from sand to beige and pristine white, creates a luminous effect, shaken up by the introduction of vibrant red: this new color experimentation is spotted on flowing neo- Hawaiian shirts and a luxurious version of the iconic track jacket. References to the verdant gardens of Provence add a poetic touch: classic knits in rose pink and mimosa yellow, jackets and workwear-inspired pants in sage and olive hues.
Maxime Schwab and Dany Dos Santos continue to explore ornamentation, introducing a woven motif that creates a new visual signature for the brand. This elegant braided detail snakes along shoulders and trouser legs and is embroidered on the pockets of workwear-inspired shirts. Leather patches on back pockets, linen shirts with contrast stitching and a stunning patchwork crochet sweatshirt confirm the brand’s attachment to natural materials.
