PinAmidst the tranquil backdrop of Bygdøy, a nature haven just a stone’s throw from Oslo’s bustling heart, photographer Kevin Sinclair captures the essence of Melbostad’s fall-winter 2023 collection. Andreas Melbostad, the brand creative director, draws inspiration from the serene landscapes of Bygdøy.
The collection is an homage to nature, a seamless blend of vintage military aesthetics and the hardworking spirit of workwear. Yet, the Scandinavian palette, bursting with leafy greens and rocky grays, becomes the tapestry for designs, mirroring the Nordic terrains and offering a play of contrast against the environment.
