What attractive pieces did we see from this 170th Anniversary Bally collection – from Autumn Winter 2021?
Shoes
Leather-crafted platform heels are donned with oversized 1851 hardware in dark, rich tones. Functional outdoor styles, including new Curling as well as hiking boots, inspired by a century of references from the Bally Archive, strike a balance between ease and exploration. Sleek Janelle pumps and sneakers live alongside lambskin boots in heritage red with bombé detail.
Bags
A/W 2021 makes a mark with standout silhouettes, like a graceful Cabana bucket bag with monogram motifs or supersize ultra-soft leather totes with embossed logos. Graphic B-Chain cross-body minibags and shoulder bags boast bombé Bally Stripe inspired details, and saddle bags with woven finishes and contrast stitching.
Ready-to-Wear
Elevated workwear sees sumptuous yet sporty layering across streamlined styles for a new take on tailoring. Traditional methods are applied to contemporary materials, as with an expertly patchworked leather coat, for a definitive sartorial look in the season’s earthy hues. Foundational robe coats in brushed alpaca-wool monogram jacquard and ribbed, roll-neck sweaters bring textural elegance, while quilted patterns and Prince of Wales check add classic charm.
