What does it mean to be Swedish? Tiger of Sweden designers Ronnie Junior McDonald and Andreas Gran explored this question with their fall collection, which referenced the Dalarna region, renowned for its forest and lakes.
It was a nostalgic and romantic offering that drew on Swedish folk art, seen in a motif by Swedish artist Jakob Krajcik that appeared as a pressed-flower jacquard in some sophisticated, sharp tailoring in black, and as floral heraldic motifs patched on a field coat that was worn over a trim gray suit — suits being the mainstay of the brand.
The romantic vibe was especially poignant in the dusty rose closing looks, the last of which was a velvet, double-breasted peak-collared blazer, worn with high-waist pants, a lilac shirt and a teeny ribbon bow tie.
