In the heart of fashion innovation, where precision meets imperfection, AGL presents a visionary exploration of design in their Fall/Winter 2024/2025 collection. Aptly named FLAWED GEOMETRIES, this collection is a testament to the beauty found in asymmetry, the allure of imperfect lines, and the charm of human imperfection. Their presentation was tailored to explain this approach during the Milan Fashion Week.
At the core of this collection lies a meticulous study of proportions, symmetries, and the delicate balance of geometries. From clean and precise lines to the experimentation with shapes and decorations, each piece is a masterpiece of artistry and craftsmanship.
Triangular heels paired with sharp toes, multi-striped heels adorning square toes, and mathematical embroidery such as matelassé create a visual symphony that captivates the senses. Lines of crystals delicately embellish leather pieces with laser-cut graphic work, adding a touch of opulence to every ensemble.
Yet, amidst the mathematical precision, there is a yearning for spontaneity and imperfection. As the pencil glides across the canvas, there is a desire to abandon oneself to the allure of impulsive and imperfect drawings. It is from these less mathematical and extraordinarily human atmospheres that the drawings of FLAWED GEOMETRIES are born.
A network of squares serves as a canvas for imprecise, interrupted, and intersected lines adorned with micro metal studs, creating a captivating visual narrative. From ballerinas to lace-up booties, each piece tells a story of imperfection and individuality.
Bows covered in crystals illuminate spotted suede, while reversed leather moccasins boast a material effect that is both striking and unique. Over-the-knee boots with a masculine-inspired shape are transformed with see-through crystal circles, adding a touch of whimsy to the collection.
Metallic jais, studs, and crystals adorn Texan sabots and sandals with voluminous bottoms, creating a juxtaposition of ruggedness and elegance.
Macro platform bottoms crafted from natural rubber expanded with air provide the perfect mix of volume and lightness, supporting hyper-feminine styles such as the baby shoe and over-the-knee stretch latex boot.
In terms of color, the collection is anchored in an obsession with black, a hue that is inevitable for the upcoming season. Hints of red, green, and grey add depth and dimension to the color palette, creating a sense of drama and sophistication.
Materials sourced exclusively from Italy, including nappa, suede, faux fur, sheepskin, latex, and patent leather, ensure the highest quality and craftsmanship.
Decorations such as round micro studs, metallic jais, and crystal-covered bows add a touch of glamour to each piece, elevating them to wearable works of art.
FLAWED GEOMETRIES is not simply a collection of shoes; it is a celebration of individuality, imperfection, and the beauty found in the unexpected. With each piece, AGL invites us to embrace our flaws and celebrate our uniqueness, proving that true beauty lies in imperfection.
