“It’s about the person, rather than the uniform,” said Luke Meier, discussing the men’s spring 2022 collection he co-designed with his wife Lucie. It was presented as part of Paris Fashion Week with a video filmed at a decadent Milanese hotel.

Luke Meier, who is Canadian, looked back at his years in New York City when he was designing for Supreme. “When I moved there, I discovered that guys had the best kind of style, they were mixing and matching things, experimenting with garments in their wardrobe, in a way which felt sophisticated and effortless,” he explained during a meeting at the Jil Sander showroom in Milan.

The collection felt more relaxed and in sync with the current times than ever. The designers experimented with colors, shapes and patterns in a way that felt chic, but with humor and an effortless cool.

Sartorial influences merged with utilitarian and streetwear influences, while more eccentric touches included silk tops with a fur-like look and jewelry details.

The lineup included suits in pastel tones cut in precise, yet relaxed silhouettes; a cheetah-printed furry vest was layered under a hooded lightweight coat;  ribbed cardigans with leather-covered buttons were paired with polo shirts, while color-blocked vests with a tactile feel came off as artsy.

Vintage graphics appearing on the windows of local delis in New York were introduced in the collection through the patches peppering baggy pants, the artisanal intarsia and embroideries of knitted pieces, as well as via allover prints on flight suits.

With this spring effort, Lucie and Luke Meier unveiled a new side of their multifaceted creativity, one light-heartened and young.
