The Architectural Influences Behind Our Spring Collection

How Buildings Shape Our Clothes

When you look at our Spring Collection, you might notice something different about the shapes and lines. That’s because at Locus Solus Studio, we find inspiration in unexpected places – especially architecture.

Buildings might seem far from fashion, but they share something important with clothing: they’re both designed to be both beautiful and useful. This balance is at the heart of everything we create.

From Skylines to Silhouettes

This season, our team took walks through New York City, looking up at the mix of old and new buildings that make our skyline special. We noticed:

• The clean, straight lines of modern glass towers
• Unexpected angles that catch sunlight in surprising ways
• The balance between solid structures and open spaces
• How different materials work together to create something beautiful

These elements now appear in our clothing. Our wide-leg pants feature crisp lines like a well-designed building. The asymmetrical top in our collection mimics how modern architecture often uses unexpected angles to create interest.

Wearable Architecture

Unlike buildings, clothes need to move with you through your day. We’ve taken these architectural ideas and made them comfortable:

• Structured shoulders that hold their shape while allowing movement
• Folds in fabric that create interesting shadows, just like building facades
• Pockets and seams placed at angles that flatter your body
• Color blocks inspired by how different building materials meet

Our design team works hard to make sure these architectural elements don’t just look good – they feel good too. Each piece is tested for comfort and wearability before it reaches you.

Your Personal Style Building Blocks

Like a good architect chooses the right materials for a building, we’ve chosen fabrics that help our designs keep their shape while feeling soft against your skin. Our structured blazer holds its form all day, while still moving naturally with your body.

These architectural pieces work as the foundation of your wardrobe. They can be dressed up or down, making them versatile building blocks for your personal style.
