Forward New Arrivals — Damir Doma & Conference of Birds
Available at Forward
Conference of Birds Fall 2009
Conference of Birds is definitely a label to watch. With designer Andrew Holden at the helm, a subtle luxury is brought to the table with each season appearing stronger than the last. This upcoming season, Holden stares the recession down with a grandeur collection inspired by Robert Louis Stevenson’s “The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.” Moss, charcoal, claret and rust color the enticing collection, most notably marked by its use of heavy wool knits. The collection demonstrates a vision finely executed and easily translated to the real world. Providing a nice mix of outerwear, suiting, and daywear, Conference of Birds’ fall collection is perfect “for the sartorially savvy gentleman and his alter-ego.”
Conference of Birds Spring 2009
Come you lost Atoms to your Centre draw,
And be the Eternal Mirror that you saw:
Rays that have wander’d into Darkness wide
Return and back into your Sun subside
–Farid ud-Din Attar
Designer Andrew Holden’s line, Conference of Birds is taking flight with its second collection. The label named after the 12th-century poem by Farid ud-Din Attar has found its stride in business casual. The spring collection features neutral colored pieces highlighted by the use of sun-kissed hues reminiscent of a desert sunset. The lookbook sets a serious tone, but the collection stays fun with its playful use of cuts perfect for layering.
