MATTHEW MILLER SPRING-SUMMER 2017 at LONDON COLLECTIONS MEN

SS17 collection looks at the iconic skinhead culture and cloud gazing.
A subtle cloud print is found on ivory cotton and linen

Bleached denim is softened with a pattern of white and grey clouds in a blue sky. This print was inspired by John Constable's  “A Study of Clouds 1871”  a copy of which  hung in Matthew ’s council house in the early 1980s

 As ivory represents day, blues and black represent the night.

 Miller deconstructs an antique Kimono and a defunct tuxedo, bringing together a mismatch of cultural style and history.

 The checkerboard pattern in tones of blue was inspired by the Trojan-skinhead culture in the late '60s

 Badges of butterflies adorn the clothes to represent the fleetingness and fragility of beauty..

The phrase 'Negasconic Teenage Warhead' grace the front of t-shirts.

Footwear: Converse

Berthold Spring/Summer 2017 Menswear Presentation

Titled Dimension - SS17 sees a new formal ease and buoyancy to Raimund Berthold's exploration of volume, lightness and scale.

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.

Central to the mood board are images of artworks whose graphic line has been broken, split or interrupted.
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.
