Givenchy Pulls From the World of Motocross for Fall 2018 Pre-Collection
Clare Waight Keller takes the fashion house off-road.
Ahead of the brand’s sporty and furry Fall/Winter 2018 collection, Givenchy readies a brief selection of motocross-influenced gear for its Fall 2018 pre-collection. Dubbed “MC3” as a nod to its motocross influences, the release encompasses accessories and ready-to-wear, replete with branding and bold accents of color.
Recognizable touches from motocross uniforms are transposed into the pre-fall range, which elevates the influences beyond direct homage. A windbreaker, tee and sweater offer stylized Givenchy branding that recalls the branding seen on riders’ gear, along with bright blue and red details on a white base. A pair of sneakers accompany the clothes, as well as slide sandals and two shoes detailed with inverted branding on the rear, which matches the occasionally-inverted logos on the bags. Along with a substantial duffle, the collection includes a small variety of shoulder and waist bags, all executed in hard-wearing leather, with the requisite black bases elevated with colorful panels and striped patterns.
The pre-fall goods are available on Givenchy’s web store.
Elsewhere, fellow luxury house Prada debuted a bowling-inspired collection in league with MR PORTER.
