If you've been following along on Instagram, you have definitely seen that Teddy Santis and Aimé Leon Dore have something big in store for us. Well here it has finally landed and here is the lookbook for the brand's "35th St." collection. It's not just big in the sense that it's literally the brand's largest yet, clocking in at 37 pieces, but also in its breadth. It contains a lot of different styles and pieces that come together super well. While Aimé burst onto the scene with a collection of super minimal, mostly terry-based pieces, "35th St." shows that it's come a long way since then. With pieces like shawl topcoats done in standard as well as fuzzy fabrics, quarter-zip sherpa hoodies, sherpa vests, a leather biker jacket, rib knit sweaters, high-neck shirts with buttons that go all the way up and high-neck sweatshirts with zips and a kangaroo pocket, it's a pretty stacked lineup. Also consider the strong color palette with camel tones, deep reds, strong blues, white and black and you've got pieces that not only go with each other, but the rest of your wardrobe as well. Split hems and side-zips are there for layering so if global warming doesn't completely fuck up this winter and we actually need more than two layers, this gear will slide into the rotation perfectly.
The collection will be available exclusively from Aimé Leon Dore's website today at 11 a.m. EST with pieces made to order. Get your wallets ready.
