Casablance-born Paris-based designer Yohan Sefaty wrote in his press notes : "I do not make a difference between men and women. I believe that in our current era women are affirming their masculinity, men on the other hand, are very much in touch with their feminine side. In some kind of way they’re joining each other in the middle. Nevertheless they still keep their personal mystery. The only boundaries which we are chained to are those we impose upon ourselves. They are controlled by our cultural, ancestral fears. Understanding and fighting our fears is the only possibility to reject the boundaries and emancipate ourselves from them".
For this season's collection, you'll get a good glimpse of Johan Serfaty's knack for constructing leather outerwear. Included were long coats and jackets pieced with both extreme detailing and minimalism. Some of the outerwear were smooth and streamlined, bearing almost no stitches or pockets. Other coats however, had dramatic details such as high collars, sherpa flaps, and other obvious trimmings, pockets and stitchings. There was something both abstract and simple to the way the collection was presented, and it could go back to Yohan Serfaty’s thoughts on the male and female form, where rigidity and subtlety can exist in both sexes.
