Untitled, Zoe Smith
A sophisticated men's casualwear collection with trompe l'oille references to formalwear, in order to find a new ground between formality and informality. Through questioning and altering constants within classic garments, this collection combines classic formality with innovation. Deception challenges the traits and practicalities which conventional garments conform to, through the use of layering, applique and intarsia, along with the collision of knit, jerseys and wovens.
