Research began with an archival French army cavalry coat which was wrapped and placed on the body, generating sharp silhouettes from its colossal proportions. From this the collection developed to look at how volume can be controlled, folded and tucked away.
The drape across asymmetric front jackets in engineered lightweight leather is graphic and bold.
The longer line of jersey separates controls the sway of wide legged trousers.
Blocks of contrast fabric are used to break up garments.
Technical performance and outerwear fabrics are paired with natural woven cotton and suiting.
There is a structural elegance to the season's knitwear, The fine gauge oversized square T with intarsia contrast stripes and long - line knitted jacket are clean and crisp.
Inspiration: Artist Anish Kapoor's 2010 Ascension (Red) installation at the Guggenheim Museum NY. inspired the collection's breeziness.
Colour palette: red, ivory, steel grey and black.
As in Kapoor's work the red is sober and thoughtful rather than agressive.
The black is natural and uncomplicated.
