Rolf Ekroth Unveils the Latest Capsule for the FW23 Season

— January 13, 2023 — Fashion
Finnish designer Rolf Ekroth designs the latest collection made for the Fall/Winter 2023 season. The seasonal capsule is dubbed Galen Värld, which is Swedish for 'crazy world.' The collection channel staples that originally drew global attention, which means a range of outerwear that is designed with a technical theme.

The leading piece in the capsule is a black puffy ski suit that covers not only the body but also protects the head with an adjustable hood and the feet as well. The same design language continues to the structured puffy coats that are also sartorial all at once as the body is printed with a Houndstooth check pattern and paired together with a babushka-themed silk scarf that is detailed with a camouflage pattern.
