Tourne de Transmission Looks to Ancient Turkish Ruins for SS19 Collection
Pieces are inspired by traditional Haman towels and decorative rugs.
Tourne de Transmission has dropped its Spring/Summer 2019 collection following its showcase at the Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in Kuala Lumpur.
The collection is titled “RUINS” and continues TDT’s theme of “TURN OFF ALL DEVICES >>,” which looks at media and news consumption, pre-digital media and analog TV stations. Pieces in the collection are inspired by the ruins of the ancient Lucian city of Patara in south Turkey and reinterpret traditional designs and patterns that are associated with the area.
Traditional Turkish Haman towels have been reworked for a selection of TDT shirts while deconstructed rugs have been used to create coach jackets featuring heavily detailed patterns. Standout pieces from the collection include the black pleated two-piece suit and the ruins-inspired black and yellow printed shirt, both of which deliver TDT’s modernist take on tailoring. Rounding off the collection is a selection of bags and a packable Japanese nylon hood.
Take a look at the entire collection above and shop the collection on the Tourne de Transmission website now.
