AG Radio Welcome to the best night of your life
Just as there are two sides to every story, there are also two sides to every man, and the city in which he lives. Inspired by this idea, menswear brand Remus Uomo’s AW17 campaign focuses on the versatility of the modern man’s style and of its latest collection. Titled ‘Parallels’, the short film stars up-and-coming English actor James Farrar (Silent Witness, Call The Midwife) as he gets dressed for two very different sides of a metropolis. Alongside slick wool tailoring for the upscale part of the city, the award-winning brand also pulls on the sports-luxe trend, with pieces designed for the casual downtown area; both of which work together to create contemporary layered look. Everything from the timeless two-pieces and stretch material shirting to jersey outerwear and drawstring trousers is tied together using innovative fabrics such as printed wool, and a masculine colour palette comprising navy, grey, claret and forest green.
The campaign was shot in and is inspired by Dublin, a European capital booming once again thanks to the investment of global technology and finance brands. The influx of investment comes after a prolonged period of difficulty following the catastrophic financial collapse of the country, creating a unique dual aspect to the city’s character. It’s also the home of Remus Uomo’s newly expanded flagship. Located in a former coach house at one of Dublin’s most iconic addresses – St Stephen’s Green – it comes ahead of another store due to open in the Midlands in mid-November. The revamped retail space brings together each aspect of the collection into a single Instagram-baiting interior complete with custom designed lighting, furniture and sound system.
