Vintage Modern Issue

The breadth and scope of Habitus has always been extraordinary. With how we live at heart of every issue, we have stepped it up with Guest Editor David Flack of Flack Studio shaking the ‘how’ and looking at new ways to make a house a home. With Vintage Modern as the issues theme, we look at the way iconic design has stayed with us, how daring pieces from the past can add the wow factor and how architecture and good design defy the pigeon hole of their era.

Stepping Out In Style: Streetsculptures

Ola Bednarczuk braves the elements and gets moving in a stylish and eco-friendly winter raincoat.


Swedish designer Maxjenny Forslund knows that as winter rain and chill set in, it takes a lot to coax us out of hibernation.

The new collection for her label MAXJENNY is called Streetsculptures, and aims to be just that – a series of wearable ‘sculptures’ that everyone wants to be seen stepping out in.

Forslund is inspired by how the body’s architecture works with the garment it wears. She creates dynamic pieces that interact with and respond to the body’s movement.

 

The construction is simple – basic shapes with minimum seams, black-lined with a zipped front.

 

Eyecatching geometric patterns are printed onto the fabric with waterbased colours, brightening up a winter day.

 

Streetsculptures are not just about style – they’re also about sustainability. Their light, waterproof fabric is fashioned from recycled plastic bottles.

Saving the environment has never looked this good.

Streetsculptures by MAXJENNY are available via Yoox.com
