The former takes its inspiration from traditional tailoring with sophisticated and minimalist details. Stretch fabrics are used to enhance the silhouette whilst light washes give the cloth a naturally smudged appearance.

The latter features stronger washes with abrasive and dirt treatment effects. Details are bold with patterned sack pockets, lacquered buttons and contrast colour stitching.

In terms of fits, KESSY, a woman's five pocket jeans that is low waist flared leg denim, is the hottest and most trendy style this season. KESSY is the expression of a new trend by GAS in contemporary vintage denim.

Kessy jeans are styled with feminine tops to create a sophisticated, contemporary and sensual look. The colours in denims this season range from every nuance of indigo (including light blue denim which has a swimming pool effect), to coloured denim in white, pastel shades and grey.

For the evening Dress Up range, the collection has a fluid 'Essensual' feel, moving towards a more structured look for an elegant Dress Up range.

Kimono dresses and A-line tops are embellished with lux fabrics (such as silk crepe), precious details, contrast colour ribbons and bands of sequins. The women's tuxedo is presented in grey denim, with an innovative 3D effect.

This look can be worn with lightweight cotton shirts, in a blend of striped and floral patterns for a mix and match of styles and inspirations.

The jackets are interpreted in contemporary version of the classic cut and are edged with contrast colour piping, whilst pants have tailored cuts and classic details.

The colour palette includes shades such as lilac, purple, pink and light touches of pale orange as well as hues of greens from grass to military and pastels.
