Inspired by Mali Blues band Tinariwen, Swedish label Blank finds a reason for a change of pace this season. Belonging to the Nomadic people of Touraeg, Tinariwen was founded, while training in a Libya military camp for independence from Mali’s regime. Adding a certain quality of lightness to their work, Blank took on this atmosphere, translating it into earthy hues of relaxed draping and protection. Deconstructed and worn-in, designers Fredrik Blank and Åsa Göransson manage to craft a collection that boasts their trademark tailoring alongside a noticeable departure, which gravitates towards a more organic range.

There is no light at the end of the tunnel when it comes to the latest collection from Swedish label Blank. Dark and gloomy, the collection emotes little and remains distant. Black and gray are carried on from the spring in monochromatic color schemes that rely on security and longevity. Tapered trousers are no surprise, but the collection also embraces a wider silhouette. Finally, boxy blazers and outerwear appear confident, but at the same time cold–keeping the world at an arm length. Altogether, the collection does not gamble on moving outside Blank’s comfort level, instead resting on their signature uniform aesthetic that at times can come across as being void of feeling.

Swedish label Blank does not stray from excellent tailoring and clean lines. Simple and uncomplicated, designing duo Fredrik Blank and Åsa Göransson have created a classic black and gray spring collection. The range is a meticulous gradual progression of color and form. Within this progression, blocking and geometric shapes add the artistic element the duo is known for, while the uniformity of the collection highlights the fine construction.
