“Combining sinister phenomena with a love of mystical characters in history and literature, the intensely dramatic aesthetics of J.W. Anderson have made him one of the most intriguing menswear designers in current British fashion. Born in Magherafelt, North Ireland in 1984, Jonathan William Anderson originally wanted to pursue a career in acting. In 2001, he moved to Washington D.C. to study drama at The Actor’s Studio where he discovered a love for stage costumes. Anderson soon moved back to London where, whilst working as a stylist — most notably for the artist Rufus Wainwright — Anderson took his degree in menswear at the London College of Fashion. He graduated in 2007, at which point he established his label. J.W. Anderson made its debut at London Fashion Week in September 2007 with a menswear collection characterized by the use of real insects in jewelery. A dark, Rasputin-inspired autumn/winter 2008 collection, soon followed, before Anderson made his breakthrough with the highly anticipated spring/summer 2009 collection, An Eye for an Eye. J.W. Anderson will show his fourth menswear collection under MAN at London Fashion Week in February 2009.” [J.W. Anderson]
