Malan Breton SS19 Menswear at London Fashion Week

For SS19, Malan Breton brings a subtle revival of 70's influence bold tailoring.

Giant zips replace buttons on suit jackets and shirt collars are worn high.

The sartorial check has been given a dapper makeover with strips of blues and greys,  whilst a long jacket suit in powder blue check is adorned with strips of the finer Prince of Wales check. 

Buttery soft leather bomber style jackets are slim and lengthened to below the hips, teamed with embossed brocade trousers to bring the East and West together.

For those rainy casual days when you still want to stand out from the sea of grey and beige raincoats, Breton brings out a neon yellow cagoule and teams with silvery white embossed trousers.

Malan Breton AW18 menswear at London Fashion Week

Titled 'Omega', this last letter of the Greek alphabet signifies the end of a journey to one’s clarity and self.

The collection has a theatrical flair with inspiration drawn from Edwardian Tarot, the wizard Merlin,

 and  Chinese astrology

But it also shows a darker side with inspiration from the myth of the four horsemen of the apocalypse- . The four riders symbolizing Conquest, War, Famine, and Death.

 “This collection, has been a journey of self-realisation, a point of gaining ones hope back in humanity. Rebuilding one's shell, one’s armour, one’s heart. Love lost, valour, and watching gluttony, and greed change humanity for the worst....” – Malan Breton
