Christopher Esber Spring 2022 Ready-to-Wear

Despite—or perhaps because of—the constraints of a fresh lockdown at home in Australia, Christopher Esber and his team made a conscious decision to be optimistic and not hold back. “There was less trial and error,” he allowed in a Zoom interview, adding that he really missed the magical aspect of being with his team in the atelier. Lots of decisions needed to happen early in the process, he said, because there was no luxury of changing course midstream. The result was a spring collection that looked as polished and coherent as any of his outings in recent memory.
