Goldwin & _J.L-A.L_

Continuing their exploration of form and functionality, Goldwin and _J.L-A.L_ unveil their second collaboration collection. Led by London-based designer Jean-Luc Ambridge, _J.L-A.L_ has become known for its sculptural approach to design—where intricate cutting techniques and unconventional uses of material and technology give rise to garments that challenge familiar boundaries. For this season, the partnership has resulted in a down jacket unlike any other. Stitch lines and fabric transitions appear to dissolve midway across the surface, creating an abstract interplay of texture and volume. Around the hood, delicate shirring adds movement and tension, while the minimalist cuffs embody the quiet precision of technical apparel design. A fleece jacket further expands this dialogue between craftsmanship and innovation. Defined by _J.L-A.L_’s signature panel construction, it offers a glimpse into the future of clothing. The piece is crafted from a next-generation boa fleece material that combines Brewed Protein™ and silk fur with a plant-derived biomass plastic base, PlaX. Through the use of SYN-GRID technology, fabric waste during production has been reduced by approximately 50%, merging advanced sustainability with tactile luxury. Together, these pieces reflect a shared vision between Goldwin and _J.L-A.L_: to create garments that not only perform, but also provoke—where the language of the outdoors meets the imagination of contemporary design.
