The Belgian designer Raf Simons teamed up with Eastpak to launch a limited collection of 12 bags and backpacks – military elements might have been the inspiration, but the subtle color palette and round shapes add romanticism to the topic – As light to carry as his clothing.
„I don’t want to show clothes, I want to show my attitude, my past, present and future. I use memories and future visions and try to place them in today’s world,“ – Raf Simons.
Raf Simons‘ vision is visible. In uncompromising, sharp yet organic shapes, poetic practicability and futuristic, though never costumey, details. Intellectual – but not heavy – his creations are mindful, but at the same time personal, free of any arrogant attitude. A backpack has to be easy to carry – for the eyes, mind and shoulders.
