Donrad Duncan is perpetually innovating and redefining an urban man’s wardrobe for active men on the move. For fall, the designer found inspiration in the music, motion, and overall rhythm of city life. Duncan tapped into the classic Jazz Age, but with a retro “London in the Sixties” vibe featuring narrow cut suits in rich fabrics. Some of his models carried brass trumpets and instruments on the runway as a live jazz band played in the background providing a nostalgic ambiance to the ultra modern clothes.
A new line of fabrications was introduced this season, featuring flashy mesh fabrics made of metal, printed nylon, and an “ultrasonic” quilted neoprene incorporated into outerwear. Models broke into impromptu dance moves on the runway to illustrate the garment’s incredible flexibility and range of motion. As the label states, Engineered for Motion is designed specifically to move with the wearer, no matter where their daily activities takes them.
Finely printed blazers in slim silhouettes and lightweight performance fabrics were paired with matching jogger-trousers, worn with fitted v-neck t-shirts and sleek futuristic sneakers for a relaxed weekend jaunt. Other fall/winter looks incorporated a range of puffer jackets, peacoats, and parkas layered up with turtlenecks, scarves, and sleek driving gloves. Technical accessories also come into play in the form of sleek leather bags, laptop cases, and backpacks. Both men and women modeled Engineered for Motion’s refined range of hybrid clothes that capture the mood of a lifestyle on the go.
