RACHEL JAMES
MENSWEAR
SLICK LUNATIC
SS 2016
A very successful second collection for Rachel James.
She has developed a strong visual line playing with volume and contrasting that to a very clean and male traditional menswear profile. Rachel has established herself as a knitwear expert with interesting pieces throughout.
She presents a well established language where the surface of the clothing is covered in prints, micro embroidery or surprising expressive gestural painterly work created by the designer herself directly on the fabric.
Her development also shows in this editorial image work where she collaborates with stylist Madeleine Ostlie and model Leo Topalov-Supa. The photography is by Jake Green.
A pleasure to have worked with this brand at its moment of birth and witnessed such a strong vocabulary in development.
