OqLiq, a mens clothing brand from Taiwan, kicked off NYFW2020 on Thursday, February 6th, at the revered Spring Studios. They debuted their new street style collection, Omni Direction. Admiring guests were elated to see the versatility the line presented, enabling the coats to be worn in a variety of settings. It offered a dynamic look accompanied by new-tech materials.
The new line graced fashion addicts with unique urban outdoor wear such as trench coats and short jackets These outerwear pieces were lined with details that made each clothing piece all the more desirable: curved zippers, hidden buttons, bold hemlines, and an array of colors that the products came in. Also showcased were multiple vests: some sleek and simple with singing belts, some with ribbon detailing and others oversized with exterior pockets.
Whether the concrete jungle, or the jungle itself confronts you with showers or sunshine, “Omni Direction” is best suited to protect you while ensuring your style won't diminish. Coats and pants boast geometrical patchwork and a thoroughly thought out placement of pockets. While an array of colors were displayed amongst the collection they aired on the darker side: navy, olive, grey, charcoal, taupe and black. Complementing these warm colors were layers of contrasting colors. Fabrics and textiles used throughout the collection were polartec, nylon, poly and cotton. Every model was fashionably clothed by the items in the line. Moreover, they were given edgy hair and makeup by Romana’s Beauty team which illuminated the artistic essence the collection portrayed.
Although oqLiq is more traditionally a menswear brand, it debuted one of the looks on a woman taking a unisex approach. This amplified the gender neutrality that we are presently seeing in the fashion industry. Notable guests of the brands first New York show included Julian Talley (New York Giants player) Joshua Whittaker (VH1 Black Ink cast member) and Francesca Curran (Orange is the New Black).
