EGW Luxury Magazine Fall/Winter 2024
New York, NY September 18, 2024 – Patrick Cupid, an emerging, self-made American contemporary luxury fashion designer, unveils his latest collection titled “Syncretism” for Spring-Summer (SS) ‘25.
The new line offers an inclusive range of women’s regular and plus sizes, a second menswear collection, and introduces a new set of luxury handbags. This collection reflects Cupid's mastery in blending historical and mythological motifs with modern aesthetics, presenting a narrative that embodies life, triumph, and love.
The Mythological Inspiration: Fusing Ancient and Modern Aesthetics
The “Syncretism” collection is inspired by the Roman God Cupid—also known as Eros in Greek mythology—an embodiment of love and life. Patrick Cupid draws parallels between the deity's essence and contemporary fashion, using these mythological references to convey messages of love, power, and identity through clothing.
“You are Cupid, you are this person echoing love,” says Patrick Cupid, illustrating the emotional depth and symbolic resonance behind his collection. With “Syncretism,” he reinvigorates his brand's cosmopolitan appeal, paying homage to timeless myths while staying true to his commitment to sustainable fashion. Using eco-friendly materials and collaborating with local artisans, the collection is not only stylish but also conscious of its environmental footprint.
Exploring Women’s Apparel: Regular and Plus Sizes
The women’s line showcases an array of luxurious textures, bold prints, and reimagined silhouettes that merge interpretations of ancient attire with modern sensibilities. Patrick Cupid employs materials like sumptuous silk, crisp cotton, fluid wools, and raw linen in radiant hues of Peridot, Crab Apple, and Dark Lapis. These elements reflect a vibrant energy, enhanced by abstract prints inspired by tapestry and block stamping techniques.
Cupid also draws from the works of artists such as Samuel Abelow and Harold Cohen, weaving artistic influences into his fashion designs. Each piece resonates with a sense of individuality, aiming to connect with wearers on a deeper level. The collection is available in high-end boutique stores such as Danielle in San Francisco, Felt in Chicago, Isobel & Cleo in Nantucket, and many others across the United States and Europe.
Expanding the Menswear Horizon: Second Men’s RTW Clothing Line
The menswear line in “Syncretism” SS ‘25 builds upon the brand's inclusion of vibrant designs and daring silhouettes. The collection mirrors the energy of the women's line, emphasizing that "men want to wear colors" with silk adorned in bold designs, crisp cotton, and raw linen. This second menswear collection continues to push boundaries, showcasing a playful yet sophisticated aesthetic.

Introducing the Second Luxury Handbag Collection
Expanding on the success of his initial handbag collection, Patrick Cupid introduces new colors for the Pedro and Antony Tote bags, including brown, black, and midnight shades. He also presents the new Bruel Bag, designed for versatile use, whether at work or leisure.
"Handbags are our daily companions, holding life’s essentials and cherished items. That’s why I’ve named them after the loved ones who have stood by me throughout this journey—carrying not just necessities but also secrets, joys, precious memories, and the keys to my heart," shares Patrick Cupid.
The women’s handbags are made to order, available exclusively through his website.
