Greek brand Modus Vivendi has just released a brand new line of underwear and streetwear featuring a neo-retro polkadot design. Great style never gets old so the label revisited the trend and brought it back in fashion! The Modus Vivendi PolkaDot line comprises three styles of underwear (low cut briefs, briefs and boxer briefs), a tank top, a shirt and a bermuda style pair of shorts in this pattern.

The campaign of this line is inspired by the 1950’s barber shops. It represents a way of living with honour to tradition. Models Christos Efremidis and Christos Kitsiou as the barber and the client are photographed by the talented team of P2Photography on location in Thessaloniki, Greece. We hope you like it as much as we do!

The first of many new lines by Modus Vivendi this season is the Camo Line which comprises underwear in four styles (low cut briefs, briefs, bottomless briefs and boxers), tank tops and two styles of pants (tapered sweatpants and bermuda style shorts). All of them are available in two geometric camouflage prints: khaki and blue. The line is a fresh take on a very popular trend this season with which Modus Vivendi invites you to find your inner marine or navy seal and be a tower of strength!

The design as well as the campaign that you are about to see is inspired by one of Christos Bibitsos’ all time favourite films, Querelle, by Reiner Werner Fassbinder. The campaign is photographed in Madrid by the talented fashion photographer Joan Crisol. Model Javier F.A. takes on the role of the young sailor to present the new styles in settings and light with clear references to the 1982 drama.

Modus Vivendi is without question one of the world’s most prolific brands of men’s underwear and, as you probably know, it is Greece’s premier brand.

As it does each year, Modus Vivendi has put forward in 2016 a very extensive collection. It has featured designs of many different inspirations, presented in photographic campaigns from the four corners of the earth.
With its latest release the brand returns home, to Greece. The new Meander Line pays tribute to Ancient Greek civilisation, drawing inspiration from perhaps the most recognisable symbol of classic geometric art, the ‘meander’. This ancient key pattern has decorated countless buildings and adorned sculptures and friezes, becoming an icon of Greek art.

The Meander Line is luxurious. It comprises underwear and loungewear in two colours, blue and white, embellished with gold accents. Made from a top-quality cotton blend fabric, the line offers favoured styles that will please every man.

The campaign for the Meaner Line was produced in Athens. The photographs are the work of one of Greece’s top creative photographers, Vangelis Kyris. Our Greek kouros, Christos Katsavochristos, presents the line in classical poses of strength and control. This stylish underwear is bold, masculine and comfortable. As you would expect from Modus Vivendi.

The manufacturing is impeccable featuring flat, ergonomic seams for a comfortable, second-skin fit that keep you dry and mesh panels for enhanced ventilation, during gym and outdoor activities.

A new line called Broaded has just been released by Modus Vivendi. The new line comprises men’s underwear in three distinctive styles as well as tank tops and t-shirts in three colours: blue, red and black. The underwear of this line comes in jockstraps, briefs and boxers all handcrafted from a high quality ribbed cotton based fabric. This is probably the most comfortable underwear you’ll ever wear!

Modus Vivendi has always had a really interesting design sense. They have always said they were influenced by their Greek Heritage. We wanted to ask them some questions about some of the more iconic lines they have released over the years.

Interview with Christos Bibitsos

Tell me something about how your Greek heritage has influenced your designs over the last few years?

The truth is that we are very much in touch with our ancient culture, as Greeks. That has been true since the company began. Ancient Greek culture prized the male body highly. You can see it in sculpture, ancient athleticism and Greek art. It’s one of the main guides in every project we do.

Which of the many Modus Vivendi lines has been most memorable for you, most creative. ‘The Fisherman’, maybe?

There are many interesting designs, really. The most special, the most idiosyncratic? In our Original Collection, I think. But all our projects are all unique. That is what distinguishes us from other brands.

The photographic work seems styled to each collection. Is that a result of collaboration with the photographer on each individual campaign? Or do you allow the photographers freedom to achieve their own creative vision?

First of all, I think it’s wonderful that photographers across the globe have been inspired by our intentions and have given so much of their talent, taking each shoot in a definite direction, while still respecting the basic idea, the basic feel that inspired the design of the line. Every photographer needs his freedom, and this adds to the diversity of our campaigns to date.

Of all the photoshoots, which has been your favourite?

Ah, every one is special, for its own reasons. One particular campaign that represented Modus Vivendi’s style especially well was the retrospective of traditional Greek occupations, ‘Retro Greece’. Winegrower, woodcutter, innkeeper, stable hand, those gave us some great images.

Which are some of the most memorable pieces of underwear from your collections. The leather jock with the chains for example… any others?

I’ve said it many times, but each item in a collection has its own story, an inspiration a moment. But if I had to mention one, the Sumo Brief, or maybe the Converter Boxer. They are so unique. They can be transformed, changed, and this is perhaps a unique aspect of Modus Vivendi.

Some of the latest collections have a more mainstream design aesthetic. Are we going to see more designs that could be considered more ‘fashion’, like The Fisherman? 

Your favourite Fisherman is one of my favourites too. Sometimes a look like that can be the basis of an entire collection, as it was for the Leather Look collection. Modus Vivendi is a fashion forward brand and probably always will be. It’s about diversity, and its addressed to people who appreciate that, whether or not they’re on the same wavelength. Over time, our customers have become more insistent about our adding some more mainstream lines to our collections. This way we can address men’s everyday needs in quality underwear. First and foremost, we are a Greek brand. We manufacture exclusively in Greece, using predominantly Greek raw materials. We have some of the best cotton in the world here. If we use it well, we can create some of the best classic cotton underwear there is.

With a new, super sexy line of dark mesh underwear, Modus Vivendi continues with its presentation of the many new lines for its fall/winter 2016-17 collection. The Transparent Line is a combination of strength and sensuality. Self-possessed and subtly erotic, the new briefs, boxers, tanks and tees come in three colourways of black, dark red or blue with black mesh panels. Jocks are presented in uniform colour with matching mesh waistbands. The designs sculpt the hips, buttocks and shoulders, carving strong lines that meet with concealing linings and pouches, an exercise in revelation and the balance of power.

The campaign for the line was created in Leicester, England. Talented photographer and fine artist Gavin Harrison was inspired by the moody impact of the line to build a Dark Circus themed photo shoot, with the ultra-masculine Matthew Blades and Perrie Hooper as his male protagonists. The studio was transformed into an eerie circus of mystery and atmosphere. Seductive and very masculine, the images showcase the daring new designs from Modus Vivendi at their best.
