NUBOAIX
Nuboaix (NBX); void of influence for Fall/Winter 2019/2020 [Vacuum]
The brand’s 9th men’s collection tells the story of being caught in a vacuum, detached from all deterrents and stimulus. Taking its cue from the feeling of aloofness from being cocooned in the studio, the concept for this season spells solitary silence. This is reflected in the almost monotone looks with muted functional details, amplifying the mood of one that stays unchanged, neither tainted nor painted.
Unchanged is the NBX DNA – the usual clever panelling that belies the multi-functions engineered under a clean surface and the crowd favourite tri-acetate in black and white, that gives structure to a sharp silhouette. Lamb leather and mesh are the usual suspects for tone-on-tone panelling to give depth and texture.
​
Subtly new is the controlled asymmetry in panelling – a test of skills on drafting paper so cleanly engineered that one might miss it like an illusion on fabric. Also introducing red cashmere wool as the new kid on the block, a stunning shade that’ll make the Red Queen jealous.
Without compromising on functionality, the NBX style has gone sleeker yet louder. Overall, this fall/winter collection continues to offer a good mix of styles for the young and sporty, to the mature yet hip market; and continues to embody the NBX philosophy of producing forward looks for tomorrow, without compromising on the wearability of today.
