A Take on Cool–A cool Mediterranean influence sets the tone for Jan iú Més’ spring 2012 showing. Looking out to sea for inspiration, a clean collection finds its voice in a variety of silhouettes – ranging from narrow and elongated to oversize. Whether it is electric blue, golden yellow or a pure white, Jan iú Més creates a relaxing atmosphere, in turn accomplishing a great deal when it comes to separates. Hand-dyed and dressed in vivid prints, linen suiting carries a resort feel, while shorts, knitwear and loose shirting sum up a season of great relaxation.

Nature’s Calling–More rigid and structurally constructed than previous collections, Jan iú Més embraces an austere silhouette for fall 2011. Reconnecting with the wilderness of nature, double-breasted coats, heavy knits and sheer shirts are developed in overall graphic prints of varying textural surfaces – resulting in the melding of the classics with a modern fashion-forward point of view.

Beginning with straight-forward pieces and a palette of natural colors, Jan iú Més gradually unravels spring’s tidy offerings with “explosion, implosion and effervescence”. Describing the silhouettes of the latest collection as tight and stretched, a tension of shapes blends well into a controlled chaos that adds life to the season with vibrant splashes of color. Constructed from linen and pushing the boundaries of casualness, a cohesive laid-back spirit progresses from the simplest pieces to a relaxed take on loosely tailored suiting.

Winter’s cold is always appreciated when it comes to the latest from Jan Iú Més. Masters of the chunky knit, designers Jan Zamora Royo and Alfonso Peña Carreras continue the extravaganza of this past fall with empowering silhouettes and effortless draping. Meanwhile, cinched treated leather appears sensitive and soft in contrast – providing a luxe companion piece to Jan Iú Més’ disheveled suiting. Wrinkled with care, the collection’s plaid suiting and striped alternatives encompass a detail oriented vision that reinterprets the classics with ease for quite the modern appeal.

Jan Iú Més offer a second look at their current collection with a fiery spring lookbook – here, rugged deconstruction and treated leather give a masculine edge to semi-sheer garments that embrace effortless fraying. Altogether, designers Jan Zamora Royo and Alfonso Peña Carreras create a look that is very now and tuned into the pulse of fashion. However, with special attention to details, they manage to cultivate a seasonal look that is uniquely their own – effectively separating them from the rest of their colleagues.
