In a shift from recent harder-edged collections, Lou Dalton's SS15 collection included soft corals and lots of white. This soft-coloured blazer was much more Riviera than anything we've seen from her before, but the sporty tailoring was unmistakably Lou Dalton.
Topman Design's collection had lots of vintage references including oversized flower-power motifs, flares and patched denim. This sash-tied jacket however suggested more louche 70s references and a determined approach to leisure time.
Jonathan Saunders' collection included more pastels, strong vertical stripes and speckled prints. The effect was both retro and futuristic with clean lines, strong footwear and sunglasses.
Matthew Miller took aim at classic pinstripe suiting, by covering it with slogans, cutting out sleeves, creating elaborate patchwork from it, and forming it into unexpected shapes such as this biker jacket. Like a head-on collision between Wall Street and CBGB's the looks had a strong punk edge while showing off Miller's talent for construction.
Always experimental in form, Agi & Sam's collection revisited tailoring with softly draping fabrics, narrow pleating and minimal oversized shapes. Creating an almost oriental silhouette, the looseness in form echoed some of the more lounge elements at Topman Design and Astrid Anderson's sumo-inspired collection with its long floating layers.
