Dumpty Studio SS17 Menswear at London Fashion Week

Dumpty Studio, a youthful design brand, is the work of a post-90’s duo coming from Central St Martins, but originally from China.

Design expertise lies in shapes and textures- from string tying,

 cloth and leather tying and folding to create textures

Fabric used is from Turkey, Italy and China.

An experimental attitude is expressed with raw denim edges

Classic shapes are reconfigured with neck holes adorning sleeves.

. Whilst the bottom of shirt fronts mirror the top


 The slightly eerie hand drawn logo of the Dumpty brand can be found on sweaters,

Video of finale:
Unconventional models exhibited the spring/summer 17 collection, a diverse spectrum of people encapsulating modern life and a notion of inclusive creativity.



hen asked about the casting choices, Ethan of Dumpty explained “speaking of our brand name, Dumpty, the theme of our brand is humorous, I think we used some of our friends to be freestyle.”
 The beauty of the work at Dumpty is found in the element of natural movement and use of slow techniques, that aim to “convey our respect to humanism, our collection does not aim to please or occupy some high grounds of education.”
