Rick Owens SS18 'Dirt' - Now Online

Primal style perfected

Entitled “DIRT”, Rick Owens’ latest offering for SS18 continues to build on the unwaveringly influential aesthetic that he has masterfully crafted over the span of twenty dedicated years.

Both calm and charged with palpable energy in equal measure, this collection's power was first felt at Paris’ Palais De Tokyo during the SS18 Fashion Week presentations. Here, a staggering scaffolded walkway wrapped around the courtyard, around which the models marched – draped in this designers quintessentially dark and dramatic pieces. Poetic and otherworldly, this theatrical presentation was a sign of things to come. Watch the Rick Owens AW18 collection, 'Sisyphus', debuted last month at Paris Fashion Week.

Inspired by the unusual, Owens is the ultimate authority in layering, composition, and earthy hues and his signature oversized cuts and dropped crotches remain as relevant as ever this season.

Accompanying this latest drop of apparel, versatile leather goods come imbued with functionality – sure to be a lifelong investment. Comfortably rounding out any contemporary ensemble, this brand's robust sneakers are sure to set your stride right with every wear.

At the end of last year, Owens' first museum exhibition and retrospective – entitled, "Subhuman Inhuman Superhuman" – opened at the Triennale Design Museum in Milan. Completely curated by the designer himself, this giant showcase is open until the end of March 2018 and is a must-see for any member of this label's cult following.

Re-embrace the avant-garde and elevate your look this season with the latest pieces from Rick Owens, available now at END.
