On Feb. 1, kicking off New York Men’s Fashion Day, Carlos Garciavelez presented his "Thermal Sensorium" Fall/Winter 2016 collection to New York City’s eager crop of fashionistas, journalists, photographers and socialites.

Garciavelez, one of four Latino designers presenting their lines during the second New York Men’s Fashion Week, stands out for taking quality clothing and combining it with simplicty.

The collection does not include bright colors or over-the-top pieces. Instead, he designed a ready-to-wear collection that aspires to combine comfort and intimacy.

Lined up in studio 4 at Industria Superstudio in the Meatpacking District, 15 male models donned Garciavelez’s collection of neutral colored pieces that would make any minimalist swoon with awe.

Fitted in trench coats, dress slacks, t-shirts decorated with shapes -- small hints of the designer’s architecture background -- the models all looked dressed for the office but comfortable enough to lounge around.

At a time when people look to fit into fashion molds and let the clothing define them, Garciavelez wants the clothing to cater to the wearer.

“I think I design for the everyday man who uses one round of clothing throughout the day, the creative man.” Garciavelez told Latin Post. “At the end of the day it is about how the clothing performs for you.”

This concept, of clothing evoking serenity, is one that inspired Garciavelez.

The New York-based brand, launched in 2015, caters to the lifestyle of the busy city life or for a nomad by creating fashion forward clothing that provides comfort and protection against the elements.

All the looks, through their fabrics and relaxed fit, cater to the concept of creating a relationship between the clothing and the wearer through sensory.

According to Garciavelez, they play off the concept of thermal baths, one found through the sensorial experience at Peter Zumthor’s Therme Vals in Switzerland.

"The collection is about calming and focusing your senses through self-reflection -- a departure from the rigidity and rigor of the metropolis," said the designer in his F/W 2016 collection release.

After a long work day, Garciavelez hopes that his clothing, "like a robe at a spa," can help give those wearing his clothing a bit of intimacy.

For Garciavelez, success comes from hard work and exploration and his latest fashion collection caters to that very same idea.

Taking on architecture before tackling fashion design, Garciavelez made sure he was an established artist and then learned everything he could about design through travel and working for British fashion brand Alexander McQueen.

His background, including a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Architecture and a Masters of Architecture in Urban Design, perhaps, is what contributed to his unique perspective in modern fashion design.

Born in Mexico City, Garciavelez knows a thing or two about the busy urban lifestyle and can relate to the very concept his brand hopes to tackle.

The designer, along with running his own fashion brand, lectures at Harvard University and is also a published author. His works include “Mexico City: Between Geometry and Geography,” an analysis of Mexico City as an urban space.

His success in all of these fields is, of course, due to his talents as a diverse artist but he also explained that, while his Mexican background isn’t necessarily visible in his designs, his upbringing plays a part in his body of work.

“I think that my background does influence my designs, the way I approach things, the way I think…being an architect, artist,” said Garciavelez. “Me managing all my work comes from my household. I come from a hardworking family that told me ‘you can do everything.’ These little things stay with you.”

As an emerging designer, Garviavelez is only looking forward and hopes that his brand can grow a space in the market, possibly add a women's wear line, and hopes to encourage other young designers to do the same.

“The path you follow is never what you thought it would be. Embrace the stuff that you know and want,” he added.

Clearly, there's no better testament to this than Garciavelez himself.
