Carlin Group: Focus on knit - FW16/17

For men’s winter 2016/17 collections, the importance of the reworked knit sweaters is confirmed, together with the knit mixes and the printed textures.

1 – New soft aesthetics
Knit becomes generous and enveloping, modernized by contrasting cable stitches and winter dip-dye. The silhouette is comfortable, the guarantee of sensorial well-being.

 
2 – Architectural geometry
The cable stich plays and constructions reinvent the knit by using an ergonomic structure. The association of technical know-how and luxurious yarns/fabrics draw the outlines of this new city knitwear.
 

3 – Urban hybridizations
The codes of the winter sweaters and the urban sweatshirts mix and make way for a range of hybrid products .The inserts in a rib-trim way or the mix of jersey and knit reboot the casual sweater into new modernity.
 

 
4- the comeback of the roll neck, turtleneck or high neck…
…best in fine gauge, ,to modernize a 60 :70’s spirit. To wear instead of the shirt for a casual urban look!
