The new Dr. Romanelli Autumn/Winter 2008 collection has arrived at Sophnet stores in Japan. This season the cutting master has played with leathers and with college logos and mascots. As usual a collection of unique pieces is the outcome, that one can almost treat like collectibles. Smart use of panels and some strong color combinations make up the new collection.
A couple of pieces out of the new collection you can check out after the jump.

Supertouch reports about Dr. Romanelli’s current trip to Alaska to shoot the lookbook of his upcoming collaboration with Huf SF. It looks like the two worked on some hunting inspired jackets, at least that’s our guess from the teaser images.
We are looking at an August release. More details on the project very soon.
Check out the image after the jump, to get an idea of the product to come from the Dr. Romanelli x Huf collaboration.

Maharishi and Dr Romanelli have come together to create two jackets to celebrate the release of Lupe’s heavily anticipated sophomore album ‘The Cool’.

These two reversible vietnam era style tour jackets are made from Jar quilted Silk Satin, and feature hand worked embroideries based on imagery inspired by characters created by Lupe for ‘The Cool’.

For Spring 2008 Dr. Romanelli and Fruition LV came up with an entire collection, consisting of jackets as well as other pieces. They managed to perfectly fuse the vintage fabrics sourced by Fruition with the cut & sew techniques of Dr. Romanelli. The outcome is a very special collection.
Should you be in Vegas these days, make sure to pass by Fruition to check out the collection. They have created a special store display for it. Definitely worth it.

Bodega and Dr. Romanelli continue their resurrection of classic vintage with the release of the Surgical Strike Collection.
The entire collection is individually crafted & sumptuously detailed from war tested American Military pieces secured from the northeastern regiments. Each jacket comes with a personalized prescription from the Doctor documenting the original military garment it was reconstructed from.
Working from the idea of evolving the classic silhouettes as source materials, this proves to be one of Dr. Romanelli’s most intricate endeavors.
The Surgical Strike Collection is available now at Bodega in Boston.
