Lacoste 2015 Fall/Winter Collection

Designer Felipe Oliveira Baptista channels the original vision of Lacoste founder René Lacoste to usher in a new age of the tennis-inspired fashion brand. The label here balances flirtatious, whimsical Gilded Age aesthetics with sophisticated graphics from the 1970s – creating an irresistibly sporty collection with undeniably French overtones. Tracksuits, crewnecks, thin knit polo shirts and striped button-ups are the core base layers here, complimented by draping overcoats in classic tones: camel, navy and grey. Although straightforward, Baptista’s vision is also convincingly on-trend – a match-winning shot for the Portuguese designer. Enjoy a look at the pieces here.
