“Brave” is the title of Francisco Vanbenthum‘s Spring Summer 2011 Collection. For this season, Van Benthum took inspiration from army uniform in all its different appearences from different decades, from the historical battle dress to the high-tech snipers utility gear. What Van Benthum especially fascinatesis the “clever” construction and technical solutions, invented pure from practical perspectives. Van Benthum interpreted these utility elements and details to compose a contemporary men’s wear collection. Within this collection he emphasises on the construction and the non-construction part of garments and plays with proportion. The familiar silhouette and the colour palette including different shades of army green, grey and beige underline the image of the brave young soldier.
