The Collection
Frequent collaborators with Australian artists, Verner collections are highly conceptual, often poking and prodding at perceived notions of Australianness via a nuanced interplay between surface appearance and structural design. Like flocks of Melburnians fleeing their homes after isolation for to amass on nature strips across the city, entitled “Exterior Motives” this new Verner collection (Holiday 20/21) is replete with vivid patterns, high-contrast photographic prints, and hand-drawn imagery alluding to a yearning for spiritual truths.
The Garment
Alongside photographic collage prints and the marquee “Stripe Lining” pattern, this holiday collection from Verner features a number of pieces that experiment with structure and space. Three “cutout” pieces use negative space to bring into question conventional silhouettes.
The Verner Cutout Shorts are relaxed-fit basketball shorts with a single sports strip down the side interrupted by a bound circle cutout above the bottom hem. Cut from soft cotton jersey, this short also features an elasticated waist with adjustable drawstring.
Made from 100% cotton.
Model is 172cm and wears size XS.
