RUDSAK fall/winter 2012 collection comes to Toronto's World MasterCard Fashion Week
February 23rd, 2012 — Toronto ON — Rudsak today announced the launch of its fall/winter 2012 collection during Toronto's World MasterCard Fashion Week on Thursday, March 15 at 6 p.m. in the Runway Room. Deeply rooted in Canadian soil, the collection prides itself on its native heritage extracting refined elements from the wilderness. A raw and rustic aesthetic define the detailing throughout the line, which is expertly tailored and adapting seamlessly to flatter the needs of the urban tastemaker.
"This season's inspiration came from, simply stated, being Canadian. Fashion meets comfort, with versatile pieces that deftly transition from day to night," said Evik Asatoorian, Rudsak founder and creative leader. "The runway will mirror the reality of Canada's rugged landscapes with outerwear and accessories constructed beautifully from texturized leathers."
Rudsak's show will consist of a full line of outerwear, footwear, handbags and accessories for men and women. Influenced by the woods, expect black- and cohiba-coloured pieces to dominate the runway, while red and mustard complement.
Outerwear features lightweight, slim-fitting leather jackets for early autumn; modern transitional coats with sleek leather and fur accents that spread from collars to cover shoulders, mid-back and sleeves; and puffer jackets in combinational leather and nylon with tone-on-tone contrasting, asymmetrical front zip closures and fur-lined hoods.
Heavy pebble takes centre-stage for handbags furnished with gunmetal hardware complemented by turn-lock closures, while raw edges and exposed stitching complete the look. Footwear steps out in a variety of heights with chunky and wedge heels and heavy flats, all buckled and strapped around the ankle. Forest-inspired yet city-ready, Canada's wilderness is transformed to debut in our nation's greatest metropolis.
An exclusive line of lavish women's jackets designed specifically for the runway by Asatoorian, round out the beautiful collection. Luxurious leathers with classic fur trim establish the standard for high fashion outerwear.
