like the tapestry penelope was embroidering while waiting for ulysses, xavier brisoux's latest collection is a never ending piece of work: made, unmade, remade. from this inner routine echoing the very structure of knitwear itself emerges the notion of an unreachable perfection: because the work is always deconstructed it becomes faltered and damaged, bound to be imperfect by the very wish to make it flawless. this process has inspired the designer into stating that undoing makes sense. ties, braces or cables take shape in ladders; large sweaters are slashed to create unexpected forms and draping. classic wardrobe codes are reinvented with hand-embroideries on rightly called “penelope” canvas. a plastron or elbow patches are tapestry-embroidered onto jumpers. the collection also explores normally woven pieces into knitwear like a jacket or trousers.

these chosen flaws are balanced by a delicate colour palette where the traditional black is softened by subtle blue-greys and hints of pink and sky blues underline refined finishing. the softness is also conveyed through a high quality merino wool knitted in different gauges and in a comfort cashmere for accessories. while mens' wardrobe remains classical based mainly on detailing, womens' silhouettes are creating unforeseen shapes

xavier brisoux's winter is made of the waiting of an undetermined future open to all possibilities. it's the acknowledgment of a work that rewrites itself constantly while keeping the canvas of its own fashion story
