Quoc Thang


Last season, Quoc Thang debuted his maritime-inspired collection at the Waag society, a historic navy building in Amsterdam. This season, Quoc continued the theme in Quoc-fashion; wearable and weather-proof men's wear.
Where his luminous constellation-prints left me starry-eyed before, it was his more blatant 'longing' and 'desire', which caught my eye this time. Girlfriend's golden tresses were physicallly entwined into their lover's storm-breaker jackets in true sailor style 'carrying their loved ones with them out at sea'.
Quoc's collection was a clear continuation with sturdy wintercoats, plaid overalls and woollen tunics in shades of beige and navy. Also striking was a large check-print, which Quoc beautifully explained to "capture the shimmer of the starry nights within his love for checks".
