The AREA_NYC_ resort 2023 collection is here. See every look:
Piotrek Panszczyk and his team began thinking about Area’s resort collection from a very literal place—the worditself. “If you look through history at people like Yves Saint Laurent, Ungaro, Jean Paul Gaultier, there’s always this idea of going back to a marinier, a rope, an anchor…these symbolic tropes, basically,” he said. “We wanted to dissect these ideas and kind of turn them on their head. He chose the mussel as his starting point, because it reminded him of hometown.
But at Area, Panszczyk is interested in transmitting his ideas and aesthetic vision to as many people as possible, and although his sculptural pieces are certainly works of art, his “more approachable” pieces carry just as much of his energy.
Also successful were explorations around rope, which resulted in intricately constructed tailored pieces—squiggly strips of fabric cut and hand-woven to look like strands of material wrapping around each other—that showed off Panszczyk’s talent. In an open-work coat done in Area’s signature houndstooth print in contrasting shades of black and pink, it hinted at the demi-couture the label is known for; in white crepe, it was a sexy-yet-easy dress suitable for red carpets and parties alike.
“If you look at our brand, it evolves, but it never really changes, you know?” Panszczyk said. “Some of these techniques are actual couture techniques that we began exploring during our first show, and no one ever thought we could actually commercialize them, but it’s because we did it like nine times after that. It takes a lot of research and development.
