Paris Fashion Week – Men AH 2016-2017: Palm Angels presentation

Francesco Ragazzi, designer of the fledgling Palm Angels brand but also artistic director of the Moncler brand, says he got the idea for his latest Fall Winter 2016-2017 collection from watching a young man with a “rasta” look skateboarding in Los Angeles.

To this leading image was added a song: “Exodus” by reggae music legend Bob Marley. “Exodus” is the music chosen by Francesco Ragazzi for the show. For him, the song is a “strong, positive message” that he finds “very contemporary”. Indeed, the song repeats that “we are the generation” and that, to make the world a better place, we need to change things.

The collection features a skater/hipster/grunge style, with the brand’s symbol: the cannabis leaf. The Jamaican flag is featured in numerous pieces: hats, sweaters, socks… The collection’s color code remains the same: black, red, white, yellow and green. There are also pieces in denim, leopard print and red tartan.
