For SS27, Alexandre Mattiussi rethinks masculine tailoring through the rhythm of everyday life, balancing Parisian sophistication with comfort, movement and effortless confidence
Some of the best days begin with a simple thought: I can wear whatever I want. Wherever I’m going, there are no rules attached. That’s the perspective Alexandre Mattiussi brought to Ami Paris SS27 when he said ahead of the show: “…this reflects how I want to live. We’re not discussing fashion so much as clothes, life, movement, freedom. The joy of getting dressed in the morning, walking the city, meeting friends, feeling at ease in your own skin.”
With Ami Paris, the city itself is always at the heart of the story. What makes SS27 resonate is Mattiussi’s masculine tailoring, impeccable yet never rigid, and the personal conviction behind it long before the first sketch was drawn. Ease, confidence and freedom form the collection’s foundation, all expressed through the brand’s instinctively effortless styling.
As the collection unfolds, you begin to picture its characters moving through the streets of Paris. Heat wave aside, the city’s energy makes every look feel completely at home. The palette remains understated, every texture feels intentional and each silhouette has been considered from every angle. Together, they create a quiet sophistication that never demands attention.
Then Ami does what it does best, softening tailoring with a sporty edge. Track shorts, striped polos and relaxed jerseys appear alongside tailored coats and trousers, allowing the collection to move with the same rhythm as the city that inspired it. It’s not sportswear for its own sake but an easy athletic sensibility that makes the tailoring feel more natural and the idea of freedom even more convincing.
By the finale, SS27 no longer feels like a fashion statement. Instead, it captures the feeling of spending a day in Paris, dressed the Ami way.
