Titled: Lost & Found - the designer duo teamed up with the charity Plastic Oceans UK & used abandoned fishing nets (which form one of the largest dangers to marine life) on the set to illustrate the topic of plastic waste in our seas – conveying a positive message and supporting ocean clean up and repurposing waste.
Washed to shore, SS19
is about abandoned elements from various eras revisited. Such as the abstract
silhouettes of cotton roped gathered mini-skirts evocative of 80s shapes
Here
sporty surfer details are mixed with castaway elements found on beaches from
pretty seashells and pearls to the not so pretty plastic and abandoned fishing
nets.
Sandy pebble
beaches are shown as a cork jacket, fish scales as a sequined skirt teamed with
recycled cotton shirt embellished with sustainable real pearls.
Nautical stripes are updated
and styled as sails from the stiff triangular sails dress to the lowered billowing
spinnaker skirt teamed with scuba style top.
Colour palette
includes the sea blues of aqua and turquoise, the crashing wave whites as well
as fuchsia and reds of the ocean coral life.
Prints contrast from strict graphics to monster oversized flowers inspired by american painter Jamie Adams.
The designer duo collaborated with SEGA's Sonic The Hedgehog to create a feel of your favourite childhood pyjamas contemporarily reimagined. Look closely and you can see Sonic hiding among the check grid.
