Wait in Progress by Otman Qrita
Suspended in time and place, photographer Otman Qrita offers a hazy view into a waiting room, featuring a cast of characters drawn from the everyday; their clothes reflecting the adaptability and functionality in which each Carhartt WIP garment is rooted.
Building on core styles through washes, colors and new silhouettes, archetypes like the OG Arcan Jacket and Single Knee Pant are executed in looser, more relaxed fits and given an ‘aged’ treatment, resulting in a lightly worn finish. The Garen Shirt Jacket, meanwhile, is constructed from two-tone, stone-washed canvas with a distinct luster.
Polycotton staples in glacial palettes also appear, with the Women’s Craft Shirt and Master Pant in ‘mirror’ blue. Punctuating the collection is this season’s loose-fitting Vista jersey program.
