LGN LOUIS GABRIEL SPRING SUMMER 2027

LGN SS27 The collection started with Twin Peaks. Not as a reference, but as a feeling. A cold summer. Misted. A cringed elegance. I was fascinated and disturbed by the unsettling elegance of the main character, Dale Cooper. Like in TV show, the silhouettes are built around characters: a detective, a waitress, a rebellious teenager, a femme fatale. Archetypes, all mysterious and dangerous, crossing paths. Leather belts and boots by Harley-Davidson bring a raw sense of rebellion and freedom to the collection. This season, LGN continues its exploration of desire through a wardrobe that is more everyday, more fluid, more instinctive. Suits are always broken and jackets take center stage, made of pinstripe, wax cotton and grain de poudre. Satin, ostrich feathers, and sheer fabrics appear in touches, like faint memories of vintage lingerie. Pointelle - a traditional cotton jersey originally made for womenswear lingerie - is diverted into tank tops. Sensuality is never conspicuous. It resides in a neckline, a fabric, an attitude. LGN’s signature slit is interpreted into layering, in double tank tops and dresses. Black, ivory, sand, moss… The palette draws equally from outdoor gear, the pale pink of stereotypically "masculine" shirting, and the complex browns of Francis Bacon's palette. Inspired by a vintage tie, white on black stripes multiply : applied on a polo, developed on a shirt, on a boxer short, or printed on jersey for swimwear. Sourced from a shirt bought in L
