The images from the A Kind of Guise fall/winter 2014 lookbook could easily be mistaken as photos of someone’s long-lost relatives from the '90s. Shot on film, (as all of the brand’s lookbooks are) the Munich-based-and-manufactured label ventured around Grand Bazaar in Istanbul—one of the oldest and largest markets in the world— to shoot the the looks on various people from around the city. The lookbook, appropriately entitled "Turkish Delight," is infused with Turkey's rich culture, while the clothing stands out against the busy and vivid backgrounds, putting the bustling streets of Istanbul along with its historic architecture on display.
The collection encompasses wool coats, chunky-knit sweaters, tweed varsities, and shawl-collar jackets, which the label presents as very easy-to-wear pieces. A Kind of Guise continuously creates quality garments and it is known for its outstanding craftsmanship and working with renowned suppliers like Harris Tweed, Loden Steiner, and other notable German fabric mills.
Though the images look as if they are from another time period, the clothing is relevant to both the past and present, ensuring the wearer with the peace of mind that each garment will last for years, and isn't that the most satisfying feeling when making a purchase? You can pick up the first drop of the collection now on the label's website.
