Orschel Read AW13 - Bill Nighy

This collection was inspired by the golden era of Pirate Radio and the film The Boat That Rocked.

 The title and also the muse for the collection is Bill Nighy (after the British actor) with looks influenced by the late 60s and early 70s British Rock ‘n’ Roll.

 This is sartorial tailoring in bold colours and patterns:

 Peak Label suit worn by Leo (Lyonard, )the textile & knitwear designer for the collection– a two button slim fit suit jacket of gold paisley on navy corduroy. Teamed with chunky polo neck sweater.

Leo designed the red zig zag pattern panels on the above electric blue suit.....

.... and the 100% cashmere twin set called James II (the cardigan) and Duke of Rothesay (sleeveless roll neck jumper).  The pattern is mimicking the radio wave frequencies and described as white noise.

This white noise pattern is used throughout the collection . Here Stefan, the designer himself wears a loose linked one button single breasted suit

One statement piece is the Kavanagh, a double breasted trench coat in monochrome zigzag melton.
