An evening in the country with “AMI” S/S 13

Sunday evening Alexandre Mattiussi invited buyers,press and friends to a barbecue in a hidden garden in Paris XIV arrondissement to present his Spring/Summer collection.

An easy and wearable collection presented by anti-models models positioned in a tableaux vivant around a big picnic table.

A new print of the birds of France—wagtail, waxwing, kingfisher, and more—appeared on chinos and blown up onto T-shirts.

This collection is fresh and wearable, far from some of the pretentious Parisien presentations, I can see myself wearing a lot of the pieces.

" Earthy colors, beefy fabrics and easy-to-wear cuts underscored the collection’s effortless, masculine personality. "
