In a bold fusion of cinematic charm and contemporary fashion, MAX&Co. has announced the launch of its Autumn/Winter 2023 Collection. Drawing inspiration from two stylish films, this latest collection is a celebration of contrasts, blending tomboyish aesthetics with overt femininity, romantic motifs with grungy elements, and rebellious attitudes with bourgeois elegance.
Cinematic Inspirations: A Nod to “Great Expectations” and “The Dreamers”
The first part of the collection pays homage to Alfonso Cuarón’s “Great Expectations,” echoing the protagonists’ transition from the lush gardens of a Floridian mansion to the urban landscape of 1990s New York. The range showcases radical botanical prints and shades of green in various garments, from airy dresses to lace separates, juxtaposed with downtown cool elements like paint-splattered denim and Y2K cardigans. The collection also features evening wear, including draped goddess dresses and an ensemble inspired by Gwyneth Paltrow’s iconic look from the film.
In its second drop, the collection draws from Bernardo Bertolucci’s “The Dreamers,” infusing animal prints and updated checks into easy-to-wear day staples. This range redefines suiting for casual wear, combining slouchy trousers and mini skirt suits with T-shirts and trainers. Bold knitwear and cozy wool skirts and dresses complete the look, along with Parisian-inflected elements such as pleated miniskirts and houndstooth checks.
Outerwear Revolution: The Return of the Runaway Coat
Continuing its legacy of exceptional outerwear, MAX&Co. introduces new takes on classics like reversible velvet quilted coats, parkas, and wool pea coats. The highlight of the season is the reimagined Runaway coat, returning in vibrant jewel tones, alongside its maxi sister style, the Longrun, available in striking Fuchsia and Purple.
This Autumn/Winter 2023 Collection is not just about fashion; it’s a narrative of individual style and eclectic expression, transcending traditional trends. MAX&Co. invites fashion enthusiasts in Dubai and beyond to explore this unique blend of cinematic inspiration and personal style in their latest collection.
