A Cold Wall And NikeLab Make Magic Together On London Runway

January 8, 2017. Leave a Comment

London label A-Cold-Wall has been building plenty of its own buzz since launching in 2015, aided in part by head designer Samuel Ross’s time prior to forming the label under the tutelage of designer Virgil Abloh. However, the news of the label collaborating with NikeLab on an Air Force 1 silhouette was enough to guarantee off the chart buzz levels for coverage of the young label’s fall 2017 presentation.

First revealed on A-Cold-Wall’s Instagram account, the shoes subsequently were worn by both male and female models walking the label’s runway.  Stripped of cumbersome details and reconstructed with tone on tone fabrics, the shoes were the perfect underpinning for the collection’s artful blend of industrial workwear and suiting for a futuristic and fresh take on high-end street.

Speaking on the collaboration, Ross said he pushed Nike for unprecedented design changes on the classic shoe. “We took away the eyelets, stripped off the tick and woven label, we also embroidered on a section, which hasn’t had a external logo placed before, suede and leather skins were reversed to matching tones and textures that form the building blocks of A Cold Wall’s narrative. We really pushed for these details, which seem small, but are huge when working on such an iconic shoe,” said Ross in an interview with Hypebeast.

Ross didn’t say for certain whether or not these shoes will hit retail, but one has to guess they will become available though probably in very limited pairs.

Givenchy reative director Matthew M. Williams will Givenchy reative director Matthew M. Williams will step down from the role following a three-year stint with the LVMH-owned label. Williams will present his final collection with a men's and women's pre-fall 2024 collection, to be unveiled in the coming days. 

Leading the creative direction of Givenchy was, as I said upon my arrival in 2020, the dream of a lifetime,” Williams said in the statement. “Over these three years, I have strived to perpetuate Mr. Hubert de Givenchy’s legacy while bringing my own creative vision and I would like to sincerely thank the studio, Renaud de Lesquen and LVMH for this incredible opportunity.”

While Williams was credited with the buzzworthy Shark boot and Voyou handbag, he was often derided by the online fashion community for falling short of achieiving the same level of buzz and cool when the label was under Riccardo Tisci's creative direction from 2005 to 2017.

Williams will continue to head creative direction for his own label, 1017 Alyx 9SM, which recently announced plans to ramp up production and expand door count through a parntership with Adrian Cheng, a Hong Kong entrepreneur.

Williams' departure coincides with the conclusion of his initial contract and the dawn of a strategic partnership with Hong Kong entrepreneur Adrian Cheng. Together, they chart the course for the evolution of 1017 Alyx 9SM, envisioning freestanding boutiques and an amplified presence in jewelry, shoes, and accessories.

When asked about her absence on Nov. 20th, Mulkey said, "You always have to deal with locker room issues. That’s just part of coaching. In 40 years, I can never think of a time where I didn’t have to deal with issues. That’s what coaches do. Sometimes y’all know about it and sometimes you don’t. Sometimes you want to know more than you’re entitled to know."
