On-Pattern edition

At the January 2018 Paris Men's Fashion Week, BYBORRE will introduce their new collection using their latest textile innovations with an entire fleet of vehicles. Expanding on the success of the Mobile Showroom in previous seasons, BYBORRE has now partnered with DS Automobiles to offer an on-demand shuttle service to pick up showroom visitors.

Aiming to create the perfect dialogue between their textiles and the people who use them, BYBORRE returns to one of their initial experiments: 3D Knit On-Pattern. This technique has been applied to their evolving collection of archetype styles. 

After establishing a solid foundation with their Generation One collection, which focused on shape and a monochrome palette, BYBORRE evolved the styles and fabrics for their Spring/Summer 18 Core Collection. With this second collection the studio introduced their 8bit fabric, a jersey terry textile suitable for warmer climates, in a bold palette of colours. This year’s Autumn/Winter 18 collection showcases BYBORRE’s signature 3D knitting techniques, pushing it even further to serve the user’s needs in colder climates.

Key innovations for AW18

BYBORRE’s mission to master knit pushes them to incorporate their innovations in their range of fabrics; each constructed, designed, and produced with specific purpose in mind. Key innovations in the AW18 collection are: 

On-Pattern 3D Knit: 

Building on one of their earliest experiments, BYBORRE has maximised functionality for the garments through designing directly onto individual pattern pieces. Unlike your traditional cut-and-sew from a roll of fabric, BYBORRE’s On-Pattern pieces are designed and scaled piece by piece specifically for every garment. Design elements include targeted 3D knitting, and integrated text that speaks to the identity of the BYBORRE brand.

Lightweight 8-Bit:

In the SS18 season the studio introduced their 8-Bit Jersey, a double layer fabric with a smooth face and a terry back side. This season BYBORRE has expanded on the 8-Bit to create a fabric that is lighter. The Lightweight 8-Bit, with it’s soft touch and lightweight breathability, is perfectly suited as a cozy layer for a chilly day.

Reversed 8-Bit:

Don’t let the name deceive you; with this edition of the signature 8-Bit fabric, BYBORRE has been able to get all the functionality with a completely new look. The structure of the knit has been adjusted by reversing the yarns used on either side, and turning the fabric “inside out”. 

Overlap Construction: 

Exploring alternative methods of garment assembly, BYBORRE’s overlap construction gives their garments a signature look and accentuates the fabrics. Each piece of fabric is seamed with bias binding, then layered together to create a streamlined construction.
