Disrupting the classics with a sudden shift in shape and proportion, Tim Soar approaches the fall season with creative tension. At a glance, the collection appears formal, but strangely enough, the decision to omit traditional shirt collars in favor of the crew-neck paves the way for an understated casualness. Meanwhile, cropped boxy silhouettes make layering inevitable, while longer finishes break with the image of the tidy suit. At odds with itself, the collection can go any direction, but in the context of Soar’s work, fall’s offerings most definitely tip in favor of the formal.
