The Active Uniform–Treading a fine path for the fall/winter 2012 season, Tim Coppens turns to the film Drive for inspiration. Filtering menswear fundamentals through a course, associated with racing and hockey, tailoring is relaxed and moods varied. Optioning fitted trousers and a more laidback silhouette, found in jogging pants, casual and formal identities coexist. The grounding force to knitwear and jackets, a sporty aesthetic is adapted for Coppen’s new uniform. Sleeves are zippered, leather insets embraced and strong lines incorporated for a detailed finish to an evolving season.

English Punk–Finding the inspiration of his latest collection while listening to early eighties post-punk band The Sound, Robert Geller decided to usurp the classic English mode of style for a vehicle to further push his signature design standards. A war of the loose and fitted, the mild manners of the gentleman and the rash tendencies of youth meshed together for a delightful showing. Tackling various interpretations of knickers, casual sweats and voluminous trousers were brought forth for a lively showing. Armed with prints and the occasional splash of bold color, Geller’s collection highlighted a dynamic range of garments as usual. Whether crafting a cozy grandpa’s cardigan or a belted coat, the lineup served up coveted pieces with smart details. Amongst tonal color blocking, short-sleeved cable-knits and dip-dyed fabrics, Robert Geller’s fall showing ushered in a season of sophisticated but energetic pieces.
