pingüino

fall 2025 - spring 2026

‘Pingüino’ is a seven look collection inspired by my parents, who started a ski club with their friends when they were my age. As reference, I sourced not only the jackets they wore for the club, but also other skiwear archetypes of the late 1980s, like sweaters and jumpsuits. I also looked at menswear of the same time period, taking Gianfranco Ferré and Giorgio Armani as my main inspiration. The collection takes archetypes from both worlds, merging them together through volumes, cutting lines and technical details. I also wished to explore the idea of travelling with the ski club by incorporating backpack elements onto some of my pieces. The graphics in this collection are designed based on my own memories of skiing with my family. For the leather patches, I first transformed the designs into mold that could be 3D printed and later be used to emboss the leather. The collection also contains woven tags that reference back to tailored menswear, but are designed to look like the paper ski passes that used to hang from ski jackets.
