STYLIST: Joe Mckenna
ARTISTIC DIRECTION: Atelier Franck Durand

SANDRO’s creative teams, in collaboration with Joe McKenna and Jonathan Frantini, develop the season’ s image. Penelope Ternes and Joseph Uyttenhove embody the Autumn-Winter 2024 collection. The brand reconnects with Paris, drawing inspiration from the city’ s energy.

FOR THE FALL-WINTER 2024 SEASON, THE SANDRO WOMEN’S DESIGN STUDIO IS REAPPROPRIATING AND REVISITING THE CODES OF THE UNIFORM. BOURGEOIS, FORMAL OR MORE INSTITUTIONAL, THE AESTHETIC ARCHETYPES ARE RETHOUGHT AND TRANSFORMED TO DEFINE A NON-CONFORMIST UNIFORM. JEANS ARE WORKED IN RAW DENIM, AND CARPENTER TROUSERS ARE REINTERPRETED AS FEMININE SHORTS. THE PLEATED SKIRTS AND TWISTED KNITS OF THE COLLEGE YEARS ARE REVISITED. TAILORING IS IMAGINED IN AN OVERSIZED CARGO VERSION WITH MULTIFUNCTIONAL POCKETS ON SUITS. FALSELY WORN LEATHER PIECES, SUCH AS AN AVIATOR JACKET, TESTIFY OF THE DESIGN STUDIO’S ATTACHMENT TO A CERTAIN IDEA OF AUTHENTICITY.THE STUDIO HAS ALSO REVISITED SOME OF SANDRO’S SIGNATURES: THE STAR IS WORKED IN JACQUARD, THE CABLE JUMPER IS DESIGNED WITH A PLEATED BACK, AND THE MARINIÈRE AND FLAME JEANS COME IN NEW VARIATIONS.

FOR MEN, THE SANDRO STUDIO CONFRONTS MATERIALS TOGETHER. A ZIPPED SHEPHERD’S VEST IN ECRU SHEARLING STRAIGHT OUT OF A SHEEP FOLD, A COGNAC LEATHER OVERCOAT, FLARED TROUSERS AND LOOSE-FITTING THERMOS-FUSED DENIM - THE LOOK IS ALMOST HIPPY, BUT SHARP. THE COLLECTION FEATURES BLACK, NAVY, BROWN AND GREY TONES THAT EXPRESS THE SANDRO LOOK. THERE’S NO EXTRAVAGANCE, EITHER IN THE CUTS OR THE PATTERNS, BUT A PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO THE FLUIDITY OF MATERIALS AND CUTS, AS EVIDENCED BY A RANGE OF WARM WOOL SUITS AND ITALIAN CASHMERE OR YAK KNIT JUMPERS.
