Yarn Unit @ Tenue de Nimes

As part of the AIFW Downtown program, Dutch knitwear label Yarn Unit presented their new collection on a special location: in the innovative denim store Tenue de Nimes. The cool atmosphere in the store was a great surrounding for the luxurious brand Yarn Unit to show their newest pieces.


New Wave
This was the first collection designed by the new French creative director of Yarn Unit, Stéphane Barbier. Owner of Yarn Unit, Jan Everard Wiggelinkhuizen, has every reason to be proud of the brand that he founded only five years ago. This collection, called Splendor in the Grass, was inspired by the American 1961 movie with the same title. The French designer of the brand explains: “this ‘New Wave’ youthful feeling of the French/American cinema that focuses on total characters, is represented in the clothing by the eye for detail and subtle way of designing”.
