Collection VI | Spring/Summer 2022
Founder and designer Erin Beatty begins each collection by sourcing vintage clothing, combing vintage shops in New York, Los Angeles and parts of Europe, looking for repeated fabrics and textiles from which to build unique but similar styles. For this reason, the core of Rentrayage is born from American workwear — flannel and chambray shirting, denim, seersucker, parkas, cotton t-shirts and sweatshirting — to which Erin adds feminine touches with deadstock fabric and upcycled trimmings, such as antique printed silks, eyelet lace, grosgrain ribbon, embroidered linen and hand-pleating. In this way, Rentrayage achieves a completely new blend and balance of masculinity and femininity within the traditional codes of fashion, creating a new aesthetic for the modern woman.
A crucial part of the collection since its inception, Rentrayage zeroed in on the sweatshirt dress for Spring Summer 2022, recognizing the need for comfort and ease in dressing while still feeling jazzed up enough for our grand reentry into society. Erin sources vintage sweatshirts, later overdying and entirely recutting them to develop a new silhouette with the existing fabric, creating volume and ease. Where before there was casual androgyny, now there is an alternative grace that feels completely contemporary and unique.
“It's one of those pieces that somehow feels like a complete outfit. Something you can wear to the beach or out for an evening - perfectly suited for any time of day. Those are the clothes I love the most - the ones I don't want to take off,” says founder Erin Beatty.
