Neil Barrett looks to the artist as muse for its fall-winter 2020 men’s collection. Coming together under the umbrella of “Untitled,” the act of dressing is explored as a “creative exercise, an artistic pursuit.” As reflected in the runway show’s casting, the range features clothing for men of all ages with a universal approach to menswear. The modern uniform is revisited with “a conversation between the hand-made and the industrial, highlighting the beauty in both.” Hybrid coats and jackets embrace a theme of contrast with various colors, fabrications, and details such as rivets and fastenings. Furthermore, Neil Barrett explores its archives, referencing prior season statements like a down padded jacket from 2000 or a 2003 biker-coat. Meanwhile, classic artwork is integrated into the collection by way of a collaboration with Milan-based graffiti artist Red.
