R13 Resort 2024

Designer Chris Leba stayed true to his distinctive design codes for R13’s resort 2024 collection, delivering a punk-themed lineup infused with his signature denim, plaid, and graphic pieces.

Leba expressed that, for R13, it’s always about the same girl, akin to a continuous saga like the next episode of “Star Wars.” However, this season, the focus is on gold and graffiti, with black shirts taking center stage in the looks.

The collection revolves around a mix of high and low styles, blending casual and more formal elements. This is evident in the gold pieces, such as a metallic gold blazer paired with black denim jeans, baggy black jeans layered with metallic gold accents, and loose-fitting black cashmere sweaters adorned with paint splatter-like gold details.

Graffiti designs feature prominently, infusing the collection with a punk-rock vibe. These designs, originally created by a former intern, adorn oversized blazers, cargo pants, and dress shirts, adding an edgy flair.

As R13 is renowned for its denim, Leba introduced innovative twists on classic jeans. One notable style reimagined a loose-fitting trouser with buckle accents and a flared silhouette, inspired by the approach taken in designing a trench coat. Another standout piece was an actual trench coat with a contemporary touch—an open back design.

Overall, the collection showcases fresh interpretations of R13’s iconic aesthetic, sure to captivate the brand’s loyal customers. Chris Leba’s resort 2024 lineup exudes punk vibes while staying true to the brand’s distinctive style.
