Gorp core turns corp core for Arc’teryx VEILANCE FW23. The technical line demonstrated what it does best, fusing a pared-back minimalist aesthetic with a mountainous practicality.
Campaign images show grey suiting finished with hidden buttons and concealed seams, worn with a matching shirt. Also included in the monochrome offering are black puffer jackets, perfect for impending cold snaps.
Loose-fitting tailored trousers are worn with chunky leather boots in contemporary workwear looks. Totes are carried by the side of models, revealing a utilitarian crossbody strap for some “ready for anything” wearability.
Knee-length coats are pictured blowing in the wind, with a blurry city backdrop putting the focus on the garment. Throughout the lookbook, we see experimental photography techniques introduce colour to black and white shots, contrasting polished clothing with rugged and imperfect photography – mirroring the unpredictability of the metropolis.
VEILANCE has been doing muted minimalism before quiet luxury came and went. It serves as Arc’teryx’s elevated streetwear label, fusing the Canadian outdoor brand’s all conditions technology into put-together, timeless pieces, which feel at home in even the strictest of menswear purist’s closets.
Whether you lean more on the side of corp or gorp, there’s a piece of Arc’teryx VEILANCE’s FW23 collection for your wardrobe. Head to the VEILANCE website to get your hands on the latest items.
