Milli Point Two Opens its First U.S. Show Room in Beverly Hills
Beverly Hills, CA – Contemporary menswear brand Milli Point Two debuts its RED drop; a cohesive 12-piece collection of standout silhouettes in red (and blue) leather garments, built upon the foundation laid by the inaugural ‘Day One’ collection, marking a vibrant evolution in Milli Point Two’s creative direction, and highlighting the brand’s fearless approach to design. The ‘RED’ drop is an initial step from inside the walls of the European label’s recently launched flagship on Canon Drive (Beverly Hills, CA) assembly. Despite its name, the color palette is led by color-block’ esque etchings of red and blue, symbolizing the primary colors of America. The bold palette also acts invasively as a representation of the brand’s intervention into the colder hues of 90s-inspired mise-en-scène. Designs are deliberately raunchy with a ‘rockstar meets grunge’ attitude. The RED collection will be available to shop by appointment at the brand’s flagship 333 N. Canon Dr. Beverly Hills, (CA) 90210, to make an appointment click here.

Some of the RED hero styles include the: Flocker raincoat, a luxurious take on a classic packable raincoat design, oversized and made from 100% Italian nylonide silk / Dissector jacket, a heavy premium leather trucker jacket ft. a boxy oversized shape with a prominent crop / Anthea pant, a leather streamlined bootcut pant inspired by classic boxing attire, featuring a silk waist-line insert that resembles boxing shorts that protrude from the pant waistline, the pant features elongated back pockets with removable patch, and the Netherfront leather vest, a leather heavyweight full-grain function-meets-luxury fabric, all clad in blocks of vibrant red and blue, featuring the label’s signature ‘3D’ finish, to name a few.

The accompanying RED campaign is heavily inspired by every raving and raging subculture from the 90s. For the shoot itself, the central inspirational framework was 90s Wall Street, the golden years of power suiting and office extravagance. The visuals were shot in a ‘stereotypical 90s office’ setting, with its characters hinting at a love/lust triangle scenario, that puts a lifelong friendship to the test. In the flurry of tobacco smoke, hardwood executive tables and analog printers, stand the otherworldly red-blue garments, striking through the narrative, leaving a taste as though the characters come from a parallel future, while still trying to assimilate to the frenetic life of the 90s.
“There was a lot of thinking, rethinking and (oftentimes) overthinking involved before we noticed that the true solution was right in front of our eyes. It lies in everything that we’ve done so far, just brought up to the next level considering fabrics, color finishes, and cuts, with a few surprises along the way. The RED collection symbolizes our first venture into a series of experimentational episodes on our base aesthetic, as well as a deep dive into the anatomies of our signature pieces.” –Tomislav/Tomo (Founder / Designer / Milli Point Two).
