Celio is revisiting its basics infused with “modern nostalgia”. Authentic but always remaining true to its values, Celio is thumbing its nose at gloom. The audacity of the collection is seen in the details, the colourful linings, geometric prints, tartan checks and graphic cuts.

Grey - the colour of winter - is set off with flashes of rich colour to beautiful effect. Black is decidedly the other key and timeless colour. In this shade, there will be a play of textures, with a combination of matte and shiny details, such as on the slim-fit motorbike jackets in lacquered nylon highlighted with cotton topstitching and metallic zips.

For a winter sheltered from the harsh elements, Celio is rethinking its classics to adapt to current trends. The brand will be opting for belted military coats with more fitted cuts and relatively short, mid-thigh pea coats.

Trench coats are worn directly over shirts with trousers with braces or more casually with jeans, autumn and winter alike.

Like a dandy, the Celio man will be wearing must-have leather in the form of a short jacket. He will also combine his ultra-light padded jackets in flashy colours or colourful hooded
blouson jackets with darker denims for a sports chic look.

Finally, for a more sensual feel, Celio is having fun with knits and giving them a twist to obtain enlarged, exaggerated and offset effects. As an alternative to a jacket or blouson,
the rustic knit is paired with the elegance of close-fitting tweed or velvet trousers. Other
ultra-fine knits allow the creation of feather light garments in beautiful fabrics such as
merino wool, cashmere or wool and silk, while remaining warm and comfortable.

Accessories are an absolutely indispensable feature of the masculine wardrobe, with bags, military caps, gloves, woolly hats, scarves and belts.
