Sad Walli Paris SS14 - ROOM I
July 1st, 2013
The menswear brand SAD WALLI is a reflection of anonymity in architectural environments, where ones identity hides behind details. Based in Paris, Walid Saidi’s brand joins sophisticated masculinity with serenity. Razor sharp tailoring, meticulous details and luxurious fabrics unite with geometric silhouettes.
For the Spring Summer 2014, the melancholic pureness of Christian priests, combined with the dark lightness of their Cathedrals, give the base for all the ROOM I Collection the line and the curve defined by the architecture are perfectly transcribed into the cotton pieces whose materials are based on this subtlety. Whilst remaining very comfortable each piece of the collection gives a visual presence. The polyvalent aspect of SAD WALLI is still very present in the choice of materials, with their shape memory which gives each individual wearer a personal view of the collection.
“From the idea that objects pass in the blink of an eye but remain present on a subconscius level, the ROOM I is a new chapter of the SAD WALLI intimate book story. This collection is the alchemy of the pureness and complexity of architecture. That one can wear and that which also carries us”
