Moscow's Cloudburst Highlights Lush Technical Layers in Winter 2019 Editorial
Updating functional craft with unmistakable visual appeal.
Russian label Cloudburst often channels anime and similar sources of inspiration for its infrequent, tech-centric collections, and its latest range is no exception. A varied assortment of functional staples are remixed with a graphic bent, transforming function-focused garments into proper statement pieces.
Streaky, watercolor-like layers of color grace the shell of a lightweight cargo coat, while a pullover parka boasts 3M-inflected accents for bold visual impact — these unmissable accents accompany garments that are equally impressive in design. For instance, the former coat features zippered sleeves for customizable access and a wrinkled metallic silver hood, easily stowable.
The latter parka, also available in a black and red membrane iteration, is rich with enormous, easy-to-reach pockets so as to ensure the wearer maximum storage, angled so as to spread the weight across the body. Relaxed, printed pants and computer chip-inspired jewelry reinforce Cloudburst’s futuristic implications.
