Vintage Collection
by Man Is In The Forest
Journey through the
Disney Era
No matter if it’s haute
couture or street fashion, vintage has always been a major trend and reference
point for many designers. In March 2011, CLOT is honored to announce the
collaboration with globally renowned American vintage patchwork master
- DRx (Dr. Romanelli) with the Disney Man Is In The Forest concept. . The DRx
Disney Vintage Collection is a unique collection where every piece has been chosen
personally by DRx from Disney’s rich archives- spanning a time period from the
1940’s through to the 80’s. DRx spent over 4 months visiting countless markets
and collectors for product and inspiration for this collection. Every single
piece comes with its own unique historical footprint and story, making every
piece unique and inspiring.
Vintage Clothing has been
re-described as– Aged Garments, this particular expression originated from
Japanese, meaning garment pieces from decades ago, with unique designs and are
no longer being produced. The fabrics, styles, tailoring details, or even the purpose
of these garments are the perfect reflection of the long gone past. Man Is In
The Forest is honored to have the opportunity to work alongside DRx, to reach
back into the archives and relive timeless Disney pieces for fans everywhere.
The DRx Disney Vintage Collection includes outfits, key rings and plush toys featuring
all of the Disney classic characters. Collecting these classic and timeless
items is not just an act of fulfilling personal aesthetics; moreover, they inspire
nostalgia and reinforce that inspiration can come from many eras.
