No-Made

No-Made which in Spanish is Nomade, refers to the nomadic lifestyle. It’s a critical yet ironic look at the Argentine neo-nomad with neo-pop style, referencing the Argentinian gaucho. The collection shows unconventional luxury which adapts to today's world, with modern looks. Fabrics were created by mixing PVC with conventional textiles such as mesh and leather, with fabrics sewn together to create stuffed jackets. The collection draws upon tailoring, leather, sportswear, nightwear, techwear and Prêt-a-porter, deconstructing and merging all these techniques into each garment. The pair designed the garments to be modern, enduring and versatile. Each has an everyday use and can be transformed, used as a pillow or a mat, by opening a zipper, unbuttoning or rolling up on itself so it can mould according to what the user needs at that moment—providing two pieces of clothing in one.
