House of Holland SS17 Men's Collection
Devastated that he missed out on the halcyon days of the Hacienda, designer Henry Holland is recreating one of the country's most magical club scenes for his Season 3 Menswear collection.

Ximon Lee SS17 Men's Collection (presented by GQ china)
Ximon Lee views each season as a study, the realization of a sustainable concept to be revisited for the next study after.
His second study is SS17 HARD which is a further exploration of the concealing and uncovering of the body.
The collection is inspired by a growing boy's journey and how his perception of that which is hard and tough is framed by his preconceptions.
The inspiration is reflected in fragile materials that are tailored in hard silhouettes. playing with conventional workwear and unconventional embellishment and placements.
Harsh techniques contrast the serene and the disturbed, including acid-wash, silicone concealing, latex coating and tailored tarpaulin.

Blood Brother Spring/Summer 2017 at London Collections Men
Titled Homesick, Blood Brother take inspiration from the nostalgic heyday of the great British holiday - a guy who has just finished work, is late for leaving and scrambling to leave the city for his holiday, is still wearing his work attire but in a more relaxed style, no tie, no belt.
Being a British brand, for summer outerwear is of course key to the collection. Statement pieces include Blood Brother's take on the oversized trench coats- light for summer but with weatherproofing being a necessity.
The fisherman gillet with multiple oversized pockets for those more hobby style retreats such as a fishing expedition are layered with a suede bomber for the hardier outdoor days.
Summer checks and classic pin stripes are seen in tailored trousers, suit jackets, zipped lightweight bombers, shorts and shirting.
Wider leg trousers are worn on the waist with utilitarian buckle fastening.
Shorts are in jersey, lightweight wool and technical fabrics with weatherproofing
Prints, pin up girl and deck chair stripes bring a romanticism to the collection. Raw applique patches are constant throughout the collection with images and text forming a secondary style print.
