UCB's AW23 Collection: Timeless, Sustainable, and Original
18 October 2023, Mumbai
Benetton's AW23 collection, designed by Mr. Andrea Incontri, is a functional and timeless celebration of the brand's heritage.
It features a new use of non-colors (white, black, and grey) and sustainable materials (eco-shearling, eco-leather, ecological cotton, recycled polyester, and recycled fake feathers).
The women's wear collection includes puffer jackets, skirts, pullovers, and sweatshirts with all-over prints featuring rabbits, stylized flowers, horizontal or regimental stripes, and houndstooth.
The knitwear features exceptional workmanship, ranging from crochet to moss stitch, plain knit, and rib stitch, in graduated colors, with cables and knots.
Highlights
The men's wear collection features sweaters, turtlenecks, oversized fits, washed sweaters with textured finishes, stripes, all-over jacquard and lightly brushed wool.
The casual elegance of the knitwear mixes with the pared down lines of apparel with tailored finishes: a mix that can be appreciated on premium dress shirts, polo tees and knit pants.
Accessories play an essential role, adding further impact to the overall look for both men and women.
Sustainable fashion
Made from eco-leather with diverse textures ranging from faux crocodile to printed designs, the collection includes Be Bag shoulder bags, totes, bucket bags with zipper belts, combat boots, tartan backpacks, and multi-coloured Shetland gloves.
