Bluemarble is a brand that embraces a perpetual voyage in their collections, never settling on a single destination.

Bluemarble is a brand that embraces a perpetual voyage in their collections, never settling on a single destination. Each collection is a vibrant tapestry of places, stories, memories, and moods. Ideas and inspirations are personal, cultural, aspirational and even, sometimes, the stuff of dreams. This season, Alvarez takes inspiration from the vibrant carnivals of New Orleans and Venice – channeling two legendary celebrations where people shed their inhibitions and dress up as their most carefree and colorful selves. 

Anthony Alvarez showcased his Fall/Winter 2023 runway collection in the saintly, American Cathedral, creating a harmonious blend of traditional tailoring and modern looks.

The runway show featured a mix of music such as The Black Eyed Peas’ “Where is the Love?,” “Down We Fall” by Vexen, and Grandmaster Flash’s “White Lines” which echoed all throughout the chapel as it lifted the spirits of the seated audience. 

The collection plays out with even greater emphasis on individual expression. Looks are composed of eclectic layers that reveal tactile materials and intricate surface details. Fake fur in a rainbow wash envelops reversible outerwear and spills out from flared denim. The brand’s recognizable wave pattern shimmers in sequin decoration, from the fronts of shirts to the sides of trousers that make up a pinstripe suit. Where tailoring appears relaxed, a lilac workwear ensemble splashed with beaded diamonds deconstructs the Harlequin costume as a contemporary statement.

The collection emphasizes individual expression with eclectic layers and intricate surface details.

 filled with high-energy, bold, playful pieces that brought sunshine in a cloudy day, here in Paris. With its range of must-have pieces, BLUEMARBLE’s man is set to have more fun than ever before.
