Each design in the collection carries the story of these heroes as they represent strength, courage and originality. The collection emphasises the young generation’s edgy and aphetic attitude combined with timeless style. The key colour of the collection is black, while key items are oversized shirts and shirt jackets.

Y-PLUS’s interpretation of camouflage is introduced through ‘Pehlivan’ prints on light parkas, while Parachute fabrics determine the characteristic structure of the winter collection. AW20 introduces embroidery applying a vintage edge to the collection.
