REALLY COOL® 2027 Lookbook. Weight in Form.

Weight in Form: the thinking behind thirty-five looks, three collections, and one unisex wardrobe.


The 2027 lookbook was not built as a seasonal campaign. It was built as a demonstration of a wardrobe system: dense cloth, deliberate proportion, and finishing that holds under real wear.


We called the idea Weight in Form. It is the simplest way to describe what the clothes are meant to do. Material carries presence. Proportion decides the silhouette. The lookbook exists to show both at the same time—on the body, across collections, and without separating men’s and women’s cuts.


You can see the full result here: The 2027 Lookbook.


Why a Lookbook, Not a Product Catalog

A product page shows a garment. A lookbook shows how garments live together.


We needed a format that could answer three practical questions at once:

  • How do the pieces sit on different bodies when the silhouette is the same?

  • How do SIGNAL, VOID, and STRATA work when they are mixed rather than isolated?

  • What does a complete wardrobe look like when the range is built from twelve garment categories instead of a single hero item?


The answer is thirty-five looks. Not thirty-five products. Looks.

Each look was chosen to make the relationship between cloth, proportion, and combination visible. The same silhouettes appear on different wearers. The same collections cross. The goal was not variety for its own sake. It was clarity.


Three Collections, Four Series, Twelve Categories, One Wardrobe

The 2027 range is organized as three collections that are designed to be worn together.


  • SIGNAL. Contrast as Identity

Black against white. Thread raised from cloth. The first thing the street reads. SIGNAL is the clearest graphic expression of the range: contrast embroidery, clean black-and-white palette, and proportion that remains the main design decision.


  • VOID. Luxury Through Restraint

Black on black. White on white. Tonal embroidery lets proportion do the work. VOID removes the loudest visual signals so the silhouette, fabric presence, and finishing become the focus.


  • STRATA. Inspired by Material

Dark Earth and Burnt Umber. Washed jersey and panelled woven construction. STRATA is where the range moves from pure jersey and loopback into independent woven design: cargo trousers and the curved-panel track jacket sit alongside earth-toned tops.


The collections are not three separate brands. They are three registers of the same wardrobe. A black hoodie can sit over a washed brown T-shirt. White sweatpants can sit beneath a chocolate henley. A track jacket can sit over cargo trousers in a second shade. The proportions are built to agree, so the combination looks decided rather than assembled.


Unisex by Design

Every look in the 2027 lookbook is built on the same principle: one garment, different wearers.


There are no separate men’s and women’s cuts. Sizing is determined by body, not by gender. The same silhouettes appear across the looks because the product architecture was designed that way from the start.


This is a commercial decision as much as a design one. A single size run can serve a wider range of customers from the same rail. It also keeps the wardrobe coherent: the same shoulder, body length, and leg shape can be styled differently without requiring parallel product lines.


What the Looks Are Meant to Show

The lookbook is organized so that each collection demonstrates a clear wearing logic.


  • SIGNAL looks 

Keep the palette to black and white and let proportion carry the outfit, clean tops over structured lower halves, or a full-zip hoodie layered for volume without bulk.


  • VOID looks 

Work in two registers: one tone head to toe for quiet authority, or a single deliberate point of contrast between black and white.


  • STRATA looks 

Pair earth-toned jersey or hoodies with panelled cargo trousers in a second shade, then use the curved-panel track jacket as the single statement outer layer.


Across all three, the same idea repeats: dense cloth, considered proportion, and finishing that holds. The looks exist to make that idea visible on the body rather than only on a product page.


Three Ways the Looks Are Built

The lookbook also demonstrates three practical ways to construct an outfit from the range:


  1. Contrast over tone: Start with a SIGNAL top for the graphic mark, then drop to VOID sweatpants in black or white so the lower half stays calm.

  2. Neutral base, earth top: Put a STRATA henley or T-shirt over VOID white sweatpants. The neutral base lets the brown lead.

  3. Woven over jersey: Layer the curved-panel track jacket over a henley or T-shirt, with cargo trousers in a second shade.


These are not rules. They are proof that the collections were designed to cross.


What the Lookbook Does Not Do

It does not present the range as a seasonal drop that disappears.


Core garments are built to continue. It does not separate the wardrobe into men’s and women’s stories. It does not treat cargo trousers or the track jacket as isolated “designer” pieces disconnected from the jersey and loopback systems.


The 2027 lookbook is the visual argument for a permanent collection: twelve garment categories that can sit on one wall, mix across collections, and be reordered rather than replaced every season.


See It Worn, Then Choose Your Pieces

The lookbook is the place to see how the clothes behave together. The product pages and collections are the place to choose.



Weight in Form is the short version of the design brief. The 2027 lookbook is the long version, worn.


FAQ

  • What is the theme of the 2027 Lookbook?

Weight in Form. It describes dense cloth, deliberate proportion, and finishing that holds under real wear.


  • How many looks are in the 2027 Lookbook?

Thirty-five looks across SIGNAL, VOID, and STRATA.


  • Are the clothes unisex?

Yes. The range uses unisex silhouettes sized by body rather than by gender. The same garments appear on different wearers throughout the lookbook.


  • Can the three collections be worn together?

Yes. The collections were designed to cross. Contrast, tonal, and earth-tone pieces share proportion logic so combinations read as intentional.
