Ahead of the cooler months, we explore Bally’s Autumn/Winter 2022 collection which shows signs of timeless design while pushing boundaries through intelligent craftsmanship and an evolving modern wardrobe.
Echoed across a tactile journey, supple leather ready-to-wear commingles with woven and crocheted accessories, sensual bombé-edged footwear, ribbed suede accents and soft hair calf styles. Recalling Bally’s Swiss origins, references to architecture and graphic design are articulated through origami-like structural handbags and curved, block-heels.
Expertly crafted leather looks feature supple grains for a smooth handfeel, with soft-padded leather overcoats, quilted shoes and accessories. Light, ribbed knits and wool jerseys provide an airy contrast to structural, leather-bonded shapes, alongside sturdy, recycled nylons, denim-effect cottons, cashmeres and traceable wool knits made in Italy.
The collection’s colour palette is harmonious, inspired by nature, including signature neutrals like bone, hemp, dusty whites and midnight. Bolder shades bring the season’s palette to completion with Heritage Red accents, oceania and octanium blues, pale fossil and dark mineral.
With a better future in mind, Bally’s commitment to Sustainability is further interwoven throughout the collection, embracing innovation and eco-friendly processes, materials and techniques.
Bold Bags
The new silhouettes of the Arc range, with its Ahria tote, Ares shoulder bag and Ariel clutch, bring a graphic nature and origami-like folds, adding structural integrity and sophistication. Essential staples, including pillbox bags with B-Chain embossing and B-Echo recycled nylon styles and Alpine camo motifs, feature. Leather craft presents across women’s bags, including the woven Beckie shoulder bag with wrapped B-Chain hardware.
Statement Shoes
A new Alpine camo in neutral soft hair calf styles elevates slouchy, thigh-high boots with wooden soles, rubber toe caps and B-Chain undersoles, and mules with metallic B-Chain hardware. The hiking-inspired Valais embodies a pioneering spirit with mixed material, bi-colour stitching and high-volume soles, also reimagined as knee-high Chelsea boots in black grained leathers with bombé edge details.
Sleek, feminine Grace shoes with B-Chain embossing is modernised with curved block heels. Norwegian-constructed, boat-inspired Tread shoes feature a contemporary, sharp take, as the iconic Curling is reinterpreted in soft padding, animating Bally’s heritage of craftsmanship.
