About the collection:
An
unexpected elegance, with form driven by function. A modern understated
glamour that inverts preconceptions while meeting the practical needs of
a woman's life. What may seem conventional at first glance, surprises
as she turns.
The
Trench - the classic trench silhouette is subverted and presented as a
new proposition. A deep navy velvet dress front has a trench cape back. A
sweater front meets dramatic trench detailing. An unexpected mix of
fabrics sees the functionality of trench fabrications and detailing set
against the luxury of velvet to create a new interpretation of easy
modern style.
The
Country Life - traditional British fabrics serve as the starting point.
Tradition takes on a street couture elegance, with heritage hunting
coats inverted with MA1 flight jacket overlays, set against the
femininity of lace or a jacket detail serving as a peplum on a sweater.
Plaid coats have a new slouchier, over-sized proportion and are lined
with re-moveable quilted linings that are exposed at the back through an
extra-long slit. Bags are introduced for the first time - a
collaboration with Japanese brand Porter, mixing the functionality of
flight jacket nylon with the decadence of fur.
Sports
- Proportions are driven by function and an understated, unexpected
take on glamour. Fur trim adds warmth and refinement to the utility of a
down jacket. Ski influences see Nordic sweaters trimmed with dramatic,
feminine feather detailing. Sports inspired pants are super slim, with
nylon inserts and turned inside out.
The
Biker - The "Perfecto" leather biker is re-imagined in a new context -
shrunken over the volume of a slouchy mens-inspired overcoat; worn
sleeveless over a quilted liner with fur sleeves. The rugged utility of
leather meets feminine ruffles or the softness of fur.
