GNARTRICATE

On the occasion of the Paris Fashion Week SS25, Ziggy Chen presents: GNARTRICATE BAXT

The SS25 Ziggy Chen collection "GNARTRICATE" is inspired by a Chinese idiom, that originally means Intertwining Roots and refers to the invisible and founding part of the plant, which determines its nourishment and stability.

As a transposition, the designer plays by combining Gnarled Branches and Intricate by fusing them into GNARTRICATE. No longer underground and hidden but visible, disruptive branchesthatgrow andspread disorderly.

GNARTRICATE plays with the balance between beauty and decadence, chaos and rigour, elegance and comfort.

Colours and materials draw inspiration from traditional architectures, and from the plays of light and shadows that interact with the voids and solids created by the garden vegetation.

The colours have been faded by the passage of time. We therefore find various shades of purple, alongside greens and greys. References to the walls that enclose the gardens,onwhichthe intricate and strong branches cling.

The silhouettes of the SS25 are soft, instantly referring to comfort and naturalness. The texture o f the materials and the patterns of the fabrics reflect the constructed or aggressive shapes, to embody soft pleasantness. Each garment brings back a natural and sinuous experience, in which the body is caressed by the fabrics, which follow it fluidly in every movement.
