LoveFrom, Moncler

Remo Ruffini and Jony Ive come together to celebrate  friendship, innovation and the power of creativity

LoveFrom, MONCLER collection, inaugurating design icon legend Jony Ive’s first-ever venture into outerwear.

The collaboration is founded upon the friendship and mutual respect between Jony, Remo and their respective teams at LoveFrom and Moncler. The collection combines Jony’s influential design mastery with Moncler’s technical excellence and boundless creativity to create exclusive fabrics, meticulous design details and a reinvention of the humble button.

The design was inspired by Moncler’s innovative development of a new, high quality recycled nylon. Developed exclusively for the LoveFrom collaboration, the yarn-dyed fibres have been taslanised – a treatment in which compressed air texturises the thread giving it a matte appearance and the look of a natural fibre. The fabric was manufactured on unusually large looms, enabling each garment to be made from one piece of fabric that folds simply together.

The collection is a system of three shells that connect to a central core. The shells are evolutions of the iconic field jacket, parka and poncho, and attach quickly and simply to the core with a delightful magnetic button. The utilitarian forms reflect Sir Jony’s interest in subcultures that celebrate the subversion of functionality, contrasting with a family of gentle colours.

LoveFrom designed and engineered a series of new processes and machines to manufacture and integrate this innovative new fastener, including an entirely new method for precision cutting multiple layers of fabric.

A story of friendship友情故事

Moncler’s traditional comic strip care instructions continue to feature Monduck, with special guest Montgomery, the LoveFrom bear. The core is available in yellow, the field jacket in green, parka in light blue and poncho in orange. All garments are also available in off-white.
