OHMYGOSSIP — Jonathan Anderson has joined a roster of designers for Moncler Genius 2020.
The 36-year-old fashion designer – who founded JW Anderson fashion label – is set to create a new line inspired by the Moncler fashion house identity for its annual drop of capsule collections.
A Moncler representative announced: “The Moncler Genius creative hub evolves and announces its 2020 line-up welcoming JW Anderson with his arrestingly clever vision of gender-defying fashion.
“The Northern Irish designer brings a unique design aesthetic that offers a modern interpretation of masculinity and femininity through a cross-pollination of menswear and womenswear.”
Recalling the moment he was asked to join the latest team of collaborators, Jonathan didn’t hesitate.
He told Vogue: “I said yes straight away. I wanted to look back on things I’ve done and explore them in puffer.
“There’s been so many times I’ve wanted to use it, but it’s incredibly difficult to do properly. I came up with this idea of an inflated archive, where we would base some of the collection on shapes we had come up with and how they could be inflated–and really try to do something very wardrobe-based with a huge amount of desirability.”
The brand’s president, Remo Ruffini praised the designer for his creative eye, which helped to bring his concepts to life.
He added: “He’s really different than the other players in the luxury industry.
“I asked him to be simple, easy to understand, and to make a project for basically everyone–a unisex project. He’s able to talk with one jacket with men and with women, and – my feeling is – with the young generation and more mature customers.”
He will join fellow designers Sergio Zambon and Veronica Leoni for 2 Moncler 1952, Sandro Mandrino for 3 Moncler Grenoble, Simone Rocha, Craig Green, Matthew Williams of 1017 ALYX 9SM, Fragment Hiroshi Fujiwara, Richard Quinn, and Poldo Dog Couture, in working with the company.
