Malan Breton will present his F/W 2013 men’s and women’s collections this February during New York Fashion Week. The sultry, playfulness of the 1950’s blonde bombshell Marilyn Monroe inspires the palette for Malan Breton Fall 2013, with tapered gowns, suiting and sportswear in chiffon, faille and silk of all weights and structures. The foundation plays an important part in this collection, and this season Malan Breton returns to his roots in couture inspired by his mentor Scassi.

For Men,a whimsical but sleek edge gives way to the garments inspired by the era of Studio 54 and the old Hollywood styling of the legendary Cary Grant. A Saville Road element is present, one he cultivated at Turnbull & Asser. In tech fabrics and silk Malan introduces a new option to the men’s looks and gives day and evening a sportive feel.

Malan Breton also introduces the first of his new license of men’s and women’s outerwear.

This season Malan has teamed up with the the luxury lingerie company Chantelle. Since 1876 Chantelle has developed an exceptional know-how. The craft, extpertise and “secret” are passed on from a generation of seamstresses throughout the years. This offers women everyday undergarments made of rich fabrics and with the most precise fit, similar to Couture design. Parisian, bold, spontaneous…The French allure cannot be explained.
