The spring of 2011 KappAhl offers classic tailoring and masculinity with Hampton Republic 27
This spring KappAhl introduces Hampton Republic 27’s premier spring collection. The collection includes classic marine influences, checkered detailing and pastel tones together with patchwork prints.
On the south east peninsula of Long Island, we find the exclusive weekend get-away for the trendy New-Yorker, The Hamptons. You are welcomed by a classic Americanism. Timeless and well-aware – but yet relaxed lifestyle, where the good things in life are appreciated. This spring’s inspiration comes from the resorts sandy dunes, of sailing and fishing, popular activities in the Hamptons, commonly known as the American Riviera.The key items are chequered shirts, rolled-up chinos and summer-bleached denim along with relaxed linen jackets.
In January, the key colours are turquoise and purple, mainly seen on sweaters. Checkered detailing is seen on almost all pieces, at bow ties, the insides of collars and in the lining of a weekend bag. During March, the marine theme becomes more distinct with red, white, navy and a few anquor prints. The colours green and turquoise along with prints in patchwork are all an important part of the collection. Later this spring, a pastel colour scheme with tones of lilac, mint, pink and light blue, becomes a clear element that is preferably styled together with chinos and denim.
Hampton Republic 27 assists the fashion conscious man to a classic handsome wardrobe, wearable at all occasions. The collection includes a complete wardrobe with outerwear, jackets, jeans, pants, shirts, knits, jersey and accessories. The detailing is carefully prepared and well-worked, which is visible on the buttons, tags, lining and stitchery.
