Spring/Summer 2027
Kuala Lumpur / Copenhagen
The Long Afternoon
Thirty-two pieces for the hours between lunch and dusk. Washed silk, dry cotton poplin and a wool-linen that moves in warm air. In stores and online from 12 February 2027.
A collection about slowing down.
Ines Halvorsen-Lim
Creative director, since 2019
In Copenhagen the summer light stays until eleven. In Kuala Lumpur the afternoon is the part of the day when the heat makes everyone stop. This collection sits between those two hours.
We started with the shirt my grandmother wore to the market in Ipoh: loose at the back, cool at the wrist, pressed every morning. We cut it again in a 120 gsm poplin and let the hem fall longer. Everything else in the collection grew out of that one pattern.
There are no prints this season and only four colours: chalk, tobacco, sea-glass and a deep oxblood we took from an old lacquer box. The idea is simple. Buy fewer pieces, wear them for years, and bring them back to us when they need a repair.

Eight looks, one warm afternoon.
Photographed on a single day in a courtyard in Kuala Lumpur, from two in the afternoon until the light went. The drawn looks show pieces that arrive in stores in the second drop, on 16 April.
“Nothing is pressed flat. We let the linen keep the shape of the afternoon.”

The campaign
“I wanted clothes you could fall asleep in on a hot afternoon, and still wear to dinner.”
Shot over one day on a 1960s terrace house roof in Kuala Lumpur, on 35mm film, with no retouching of the clothes.
Photography by the studio, styling by Ines. The campaign film plays on screens in all three stores from 12 February.
