ZERO FORM

AW 10 - FRAGMENTS  

Pure Geometry,

modern and ancient collapse

into zen fragments

  

The autumn/winter component of the Zero Form collection continues the exploration of structure/unstructure begun in spring/summer.

Inspiration is drawn from '60's Brutalist concrete architecture and japanese zen traditions. Garments are studied in both 'soft' and 'hard' forms. For example the coat is considered in a structured version - the D-coat, a draping version - the Rag -coat, and a soft knitted wrap version - the Zen Cross-coat. Trousers range from rumpled leg shapes to straight stove-pipes to pleated Drape trousers. Jersey sections slice through sleeves and back panels to break up the structure. A concrete colour palette unifies these forms and a crushed textural theme provides a link between the unstructured and the structured.
