VETEMENTS A multi-dimensional workwear suit inspired by real life uniforms; an observation of society and its social codes. The suit is a clever play on bold minimalism and uses multiple illusions. An orange, oversized, cotton reversible, double-sided workwear shirt offers two options for its wearer. It can be worn unbuttoned on one side creating a dramatic backless effect with movement, or closed on both sides for a more subdued effect. Paired with an orange double-layer 'biker' workwear skirt. The front panel of this deep split skirt can be worn open allowing for volume to fall to the sides creating movement and fluidity. The front panels of the skirt can also be worn closed, wrapped around the body and with a velcro fastening hiding a mini skirt.

VERSACE Multicolour animal print silk crepe shirt, patchwork print cotton jumper and matching silk crepe wide leg pants. The look is accessorised with a neon green and yellow stripe canvas belt with black metal Medusa head and leather and canvas platform sandals with a light gold Medusa buckle. The SS16 Versace woman is unleashed in the urban jungle. Energised animal prints clash and contrast with the attitude of the street, with acid leopard and zebra prints combined sportswear inspired pieces mixed with platform sandals for a feminine look.
Look 9
1205 Part of the Spring / Summer 2016 collection, the Mohair Wrap Suit plays with the perceptions of uniform and tradition engrained in our collective cultural consciousness. Constructed from a fine wool/mohair cloth traditionally used for men's formal and eveningwear suiting, and woven in Bradford, England, by weavers specialising in mohair worsteds since 1875. The suit embodies designer Paula Gerbase's philosophy of Purity and Restraint, and underlines 1205's ethos of a playful yet considered unravelling of traditional and unspoken codes of dress.
