With people like Twiggy and Laura Whitmore in the audience, he’s got an eclectic following. Well constructed pieces which mixed a palette of silvery grey with splashes of green gave a masculine edge to the collection but this was juxtaposed with soft fabrics like chiffon. A lot of rushing and even the odd bustle added an air of the old to this very contemporary collection. My favourite was a high neck green chiffon blouse which really stood out on the catwalk. Although there was construction the clothes were fluid and danced around the model’s petite frames. And with a soundtrack that included Marilyn Manson’s version of Sweet Dreams, the industrial and harsh undertone to the collection became vivid.
