As autumn approaches, so does our upcoming autumn/winter 2024 collection. However, we’re still in the midst of a seasonal transition, with the weather giving us some lovely late-summer days. It felt like the perfect moment to shoot an impromptu style book, for which we invited Tijn, a close friend of ours and owner of several fantastic restaurants here in Amsterdam.

We began at our studio and took a stroll to Café Verlan (one of his restaurants), passing through Amsterdam’s lively city centre and the canal district. Our goal was to capture everything authentically, showcasing our garments worn out on the streets, and on the job. Since we always design with a utilitarian mindset, it was great to see these different looks outside the studio environment. The restaurant, located next to Amsterdam’s famous 9 Streets, brings a modern and sophisticated twist to the area, in our humble opinion.

It's going to be very exciting to see how some of these garments will evolve after being worn for a longer period, which is something we’ll definitely keep an eye on. Looking at the photography now, we noticed that it’s actually a beautiful representation of the city BENZAK was established in, and the scenery surrounding us for over ten years.
