Richardson SS24 Lets the Graphics Do the Talking
With magazine-inspired bomber jackets, kaleidoscopic fleece jackets, Hajime Sorayama T-shirts and more.
Following a collection of reinvented classics for Fall 2023, Richardson has emerged with a fresh lineup of graphic-heavy creations for the Spring 2024 season. In the upcoming months, the American label will give its fashions a strong voice, allowing playful illustrations, textural materials and bold lettering to do most of the talking.
In outerwear, a varsity jacket, finished in black and yellow, fronts the brand’s name in cursive lettering alongside a patch for its founding year, 1998. The piece is layered over a T-shirt featuring a handwritten note that covers most of the body. The fleece jacket, meanwhile, dons an all-over black, white and orange design, with “R” signage embroidered on its sleeve; and the waxed cotton parka hosts an artful depiction of a woman across its back.
The bomber jacket is the collection’s loudest member, with a vivid collage of imagery from Richardson’s latest magazine issue, A11. The motocross jersey offers a sporty take on the Richardson design vernacular, with racing-inspired motifs decorating the arms and chest. The phrase “Follow for Pain and Pleasure” is scribbled on the back of the line’s hoodie, in red; and the T-shirt features a Statue of Liberty-inspired artwork by Hajime Sorayama. Overall, the line’s expressive personality is ideal for statement-makers.
