FASHION | fashion forward August 2022 www.womanthismonth.com 68 Ahead of the cooler months, we explore Bally’s Autumn/ Winter 2022 collection which shows signs of timeless design while pushing boundaries through intelligent craftsmanship and an evolving modern wardrobe. Echoed across a tactile journey, supple leather ready-to-wear commingles with woven and crocheted accessories, sensual bombé-edged footwear, ribbed suede accents and soft hair calf styles. Recalling Bally’s Swiss origins, references to architecture and graphic design are articulated through origami-like structural handbags and curved, block-heels. Expertly crafted leather looks feature supple grains for a smooth handfeel, with soft-padded leather overcoats, quilted shoes and accessories. Light, ribbed knits and wool jerseys provide an airy contrast to structural, leather-bonded shapes, alongside sturdy, recycled nylons, denim-effect cottons, cashmeres and traceable wool knits made in Italy. The collection’s colour palette is harmonious, inspired by nature, including signature neutrals like bone, hemp, dusty whites and midnight. Bolder shades bring the season’s palette to completion with Heritage Red accents, oceania and octanium blues, pale fossil and dark mineral. With a better future in mind, Bally’s commitment to Sustainability is further interwoven throughout the collection, embracing innovation and ecofriendly processes, materials and techniques.
