Designer Steven Cox and Daniel Silver presented their latest collection for Duckie Brown at New York Fashion Week and looked to geriatric styles for their inspiration. Inspired by senior citizen apparel, the label's Spring/Summer 2015 collection featured plaid, pastel and beige ensembles that were reminiscent of something that one would see at a retirement home, lawn bowling tournament or a charity golf game.
This geriatric menswear collection mixes its senior citizen inspiration with one that is more synonymous with today's youth culture. Referencing the recent Normcore fashion fad--an aesthetic that relies on understated and nostalgic pieces--Duckie Brown's Spring/Summer 2015 collection transcends generations. Its pieces are set to appeal to urban scenesters who are fans of mixing modern and vintage elements within their wardrobe.
