Paris is Burning! š„ Ami Paris Unveils Spring 2027 Menswear Amidst Heatwave & New Puppy!
Alexandre Mattiussi's latest Ami Paris collection hit the runway during France's record heatwave. Discover the 'I ā¤ļø Paris' inspiration, elevated everyday wear, and meet the brand's new furry mascot, Abi! #AmiParis
āParis is burning!ā declared designer Alexandre Mattiussi backstage at the Ami Paris Spring 2027 menswear show, a sentiment echoing through the city during one of France's hottest recorded days. As attendees braved the scorching heat, they were treated to a collection that beautifully blended Mattiussi's profound ālove for Parisā with a deep passion for the reality of āelevated everyday clothing.ā
Amidst the sweltering conditions, Mattiussi shared a heartwarming personal update: heās soon heading to the South of France to welcome a new member to the Ami familyāan adorable chihuahua-ish puppy named Abi. Expect this āheartbreakerā to make a runway debut in the not-too-distant future, adding a new layer of charm and personality to the brand.
This seasonās runway was a vibrant celebration of typically quotidian attire, reimagined through Mattiussiās distinctive Parisian lens. The collection featured a compelling mix of relaxed and refined pieces. Standouts included red cavalry stripe breaky pants paired with a striking black āI ā¤ļø PARISā t-shirt, perfectly encapsulating the designerās central theme of devotion to the city and its style.
The ālove for the clothesā and for Paris was artfully integrated into the designs themselves. Loose shorts and tops showcased flatlocked stitched red and navy panels that cleverly outlined the shape of a heart, while argyle knits were remixed into blocky reproductions of the same emotional symbol. Striped rugby shirts paid a subtle yet stylish homage to the enduring fashion quirk of the late David Hockney.
Comfort and practicality met high fashion with nylon pullovers, track shorts, and track jackets in classic black, red, and white, sometimes accessorized with endearingly saggy tube socks and a new ādadcoreā house sneaker. The collection also presented fitted ribbed knit dresses and pants, low-backed slip dresses worn over crisp poplin shirting, dazzling paillette skirts, comfortable pajama pants, chic leather skirts, and Amiās signature accessible modern tailoring. A particularly cute womenās shirt skirt, with its āsleevesā tied like a belt, added a playful and innovative touch. Outerwear pieces in suede, matte leather, and drill were subtly period-ized, lending them the desirable aura of exceptionally well-preserved vintage treasures. It was a collection that truly captured the essence of Parisian styleāeffortless, heartfelt, and utterly chic, even in the scorching heat.
