Both sporty and sophisticated, the new Tim Coppens Fall/Winter 2012 collection incorporates athletic details into its latest range of casual wear, outerwear and formal wear. Undeniably modern, the line focuses on contemporary tailoring, directional line and patchy and quilted details to create a collection that reflects everyday style, but with hints of avant-garde construction.
Straps are also used heavily in the collection, and provide the garments with structural details. My favorite piece in this collection is a black and white suede compression vest that is held together and fastened with some coordinating straps. So if you're looking for a piece that resembles some futuristic football gear, look no further than the Tim Coppens Fall/Winter 2012 collection.
