Teatum Jones’ SS18 is a creative homage to Natasha Baker the
GB Paralympics dressage eleven time gold medallist. Inspired by Natasha’s open,
feminine and bright personality the SS18 silhouette is about fluidity and
draping.
The collection features summer tailoring,
fine merino knits (in collaboration with John Smedley),
plus asymmetric hems and pick up draping.
The pick up draping is especially designed to pick up fabric
away from the wheels of a wheelchair using industrial sized eyelets and straps.
Printed silks are in a pattern based on the formation of a
galloping horse after Natasha’s former horse Woody.
Graphic twill stripes in pastel blue and mint green on
oversized shirting and draped skirts were inspired by Show Jumping Rosettes.
Colour palette is of flesh pink and summer blue representing
the empowerment and freedom Natasha has when riding
And dark navy and amber,( two of the three colours found in
a traditional English horse blanket made by Friday Fox,) shows the unbreakable
force and determination between Natasha and her horse.
