Ntando Ngwenya introduces Virile Collection AW 2016

  Inspiration behind the Collection

 Ntando XV introduces their first Male collection focused on creating a new silhouette for the urban man . With the love of pop culture and sartorial elegance  Ntando created a range that complements both the Denim enthusiast and the Coporate Fancier. From this menswear collection ntando based his Collection on collectable items that adapt to the South African weather conditions and climate.

The Collection is mainly Inspired by Reincanating Basic clothing on a modern approach to the urban lifestyle. The term ‘Denim wear is the new bespoke’, created a platform for ntando to design and create interesting cuts to emphasize on his current silhouette for men. How ever the Raglan sleeve has been one of his challenges to execute on a formal approach and the Curved Denim jeans are his favorite cuts he wanted to experiment on this collection and Detachable clothing to adjust to the ever changing south African climate. Ntando’s interpretation of functional clothing was highlighted in his use of easy care low maintenance fabrics to compliment his idea of collectable items.

Wanting to break the bearer Between the Coporate(jazz) and the Street(hip-hop) Hustle ntando aims to collaborate these environments to create a new morden approach to the young working class. Discovering that post morden men all around enjoy music,  ntando was also inspired by a musical genre called Nu Jazz. The current art lifestyle that brings people together, this collection is based on that fact

A new approach in design ntando created these items to suit any occasion fit for the free spirited stylish men in the summer/spring of 2016. With these five looks you can get more than what your closet can offer, items that can be easily paired with each other and give different looks to suit your preference in everyday activities.
