The modular collection of Y / Project in collaboration with Fila

The young designer Glenn Martens appears more unstoppable than ever in carrying out and managing the creative direction of two well-known brands: Diesel and Y/Project. A commitment that despite the efforts also leads to countless successes as well as the acclaim of the critics. In fact, in these days, the Parisian fashion house presented the SS22 collection, one of the most complete co-ed show of the season.

Through one of the most original and creative voices of the contemporary fashion system, the brand has momentarily shifted its attention from the classic denim cuts that have always distinguished it to give life to a new collection that combines its own stylistic codes with a new sporting imagination. But don’t be fooled because we are not talking about simple and banal sportswear, far from it. Starting from fixed points of the male and female wardrobe, we have arrived at a versatile but above all decomposable unisex collection.

Everything would make more sense if we told you that in the middle of the show, a large and recognizable “F” made its entrance thus announcing the collaboration between Y/Project and the sports giant Fila. On the other hand, when we talk about sportswear, a thought certainly goes to Fila. It could be defined as a promising wedding, a union of creative visions, as well as an opportunity to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the sports brand.

But it is not the story but rather the innovative spirit that has struck and inspired Glenn Martens, the point from which the designer started to subvert the great classics of the sports brand and rebuild others. Items such as the t-shirt, the hooded sweatshirt, the anorak … are enriched by multiple details such as: asymmetrically positioned press studs, “triple” shoulders and extra turn-ups. All according to a very specific reason, which allows you to compose the garment and wear it as you want.

“I see this collaboration, really, as a union between the experimental spirit of Y / PROJECT and FILA’s innovative drive based on sportswear. The process was as easy as it was fun, and it allowed me to openly explore a streetwear direction that seemed to me unprecedented. There is a fresh and positive atmosphere, which I think is right for this moment ”. Glenn Martens declares to L’officielle Italy.
